I suppose there may be some folks for whom his selfishness, mendacity, pettiness, and cruelty are features but I really donā€™t think those things are appealing to the majority of the base. They might like the idea that heā€™s ā€œstrongā€ or ā€œuncompromisingā€ but not that heā€™s a whiny loser prick
