They sound and act like mindless fanatics, whose main interest is getting shown on camera at the rallies. We know the fans of Smelvis don't have economic issues as an excuse for supporting him. They don't seem to have to work a regular job, they drive huge expensive trucks and SUVS, they can afford to throw away $$$ on his Made in China merch which they drape all over their bodies, they can afford to travel to his rallies in comfort and they probably own small businesses.
