3. Why does anyone think he actually believes all this crap?

Yes, he's a flim-flam man. He's a performer! He knows what his audience want to hear and he gives it to them. The advertisers get to pitch their crap to a nice stupid gullible audience, and they pay him nicely for that. What is so hard to understand here?

He's a performer. This is his job. He gets paid for this.

About his audience, well, that's another story.

Of course he's acting and lying and deceiving his knuckle-dragging audience (suckers) on everything from Trump to the lead-filled supplements he hawks.
