It's telling that they don't just tell the model what to think, they have to make it go fetch the latest opinion because there is no intellectual consistency in their politics. You see that all the time on X too, perhaps that's how they program their bots.

very few people have intellectual consistency in their politics

In the Netherlands we have this phenomenon that around 20% of voters keep voting for the new "Messiah", a right-wing populist politician that will this time fix everything.

When the party inevitably explodes due to internal bickering and/or simply failing to deliver their impossible promises, a new Messiah pops up, propped by the national media, and the cycle restarts.

That being said, the other 80% is somewhat consistent in their patterns.

Yes very consistent in promising one thing and then doing another.
