As a conservative and a former Republican who rejected Trump from the very beginning, I've struggled to understand how anyone except racist garbage can support him. At first I thought he was just a boob, a pompous orange buffoon, an idiot savant. He's all that PLUS a criminal, racist, narcissist, delusional lunatic.
I don't have the answer. But some very close friends still loudly support him on social media. It's awful.
There's a good thread by Teri Kanefeld noting how liberals saw that America was founded on privilege for select white male landowners, and gradually grudgingly other groups have gained rights. Liberals celebrate this, Trumpers lament it. Every thing that liberals see as progress, Trumpers see as a loss. "My tax dollars paying for your <welfare queens> <lazy immigrants> <dirty muzlims> "
There is true hate in many Trumpers, but I think in most it's just astonishing and willful ignorance.
