it's strikes me that a lot of people who would frequent an online casino have the mindset that Trump appeals to.

It appeals to the "get rich quick" mindset... the "wealth without work" approach to life... which is a lot of the appeal of Trump's economic policies. Trump appeals to a segment of the population who believe that the only thing between them and wealth is a lucky break or that they just need someone like Trump to remove people who are unfairly preventing them from getting rich.

Now, to be clear, some folks just enjoy a little thrill. I don't get the appeal of slots, but I know a woman that LOVES them. Fortunately, NOT a MAGAt and not addicted.
