That's due to Western philosophy, which itself is seems to be OK with the idea of mob rule for short periods of time before it burns out due to idiocraty. The Bonnie and Clyde phenomenon as one example, and Trump as another. No Trump supporter could stand to enter a rational debate on the subject, and even if they did, they would attempt to be irrational anyway. Think of our philosophy as starting a fire on purpose to prevent an out of control fire later. We know we've got a bunch of rowdy idiots here, and love them for it, but every once in a while they find an amazingly lazy way to grab power and shake things up a bit - like a randomization function. I'm still hoping 5 years later all of them will forgot what was so important and go back to discussing Jennifer Lopez's butt.
