He often presents populist ideas, even when they aren't in line with his normal rhetoric.

I think he does it to grab attention or appeal to people with that idea. He then spews a ton of well-polished half-truths and straight lies to make whatever point he was after in the first place.

It's not uncommon for anyone to agree with a sentence or two from him out of context, but in context, it's all garbage.
