Trump's "anti-establishment" buffoonery is damn attractive and convincing to some people if they have not looked into Trump's tax plan or if they are extraordinarily wealthy (0.1 percent of top income bracket).


From the Washington Post analysis - "... the two "anti-establishment" candidates [Trump and Cruz] are even more orthodox on this than the establishment ones."

"You can see that in the chart below. Trump and Cruz would both, according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center, cut taxes for the top 1 percent by twice as much as Rubio would. And though they all would give the top 0.1 percent a $1 million-plus tax cut, it's the putative outsiders who would give the plutocrats the most."
