Trump is not stupid: his enjoyment is palpable. Tasteless, venal, petty and lustful, he flaunts the trappings of power and success while suppressing any criticism or human frailty.

Farage is encouraging the latent badness to come forth. Instead of challenging that, both the Conservatives and Labour say “Corr! Look at the size of those ratings. I’ve got to get a slice of that action.”
It’s the immoral leading the amoral.
