A buffoon like Farage is not just an idiot or a "true believer" in regards to the things they espouse, politicians like him are astroturfed plants, controlled opposition, funded by those who want to placate nationalist sentiments in European countries in order to prevent a truly grassroots nationalist movement from taking off or proper anti-immigration leadership from arising.
The Republican party, which supposedly is the "Party of the White man", can't even conserve itself by encouraging their own largest voter base to vote for them. All they can do is to "stand for Israel." Good riddance. They deserve this massive loss.
