He actually says these things in real life, so it’s fair game for satire to use the type of things he says.
If satire pretended that he didn’t say any of the things that sound reasonable at first, it wouldn’t be satire. It would just be mudslinging.
“He had us in the first half” is like a goddamn mission statement with these people - pointing out real issues with the economy and then proposing the most batshit reasoning and “solutions.”
