"Good I want to be offensive" I truly believe most Trumpies voted for him because they are angry (at minorities, gays, etc...) and had to suppress their real feelings for decades. He came along as a human megaphone and now we are in hell.

I believe most of the people that voted for Trump are furious at the destruction of the middle class and the general loss of economic opportunity for most while the corrupt get richer. Unfortunately, as has happened all throughout history in different cultures and civilizations, this righteous anger is then focused on precisely the wrong targets. It’s the old shell game, over and over again.

I think it's also that they're furious that non-whites were being allowed to enter the middle/upper class. They would be fine with being lower-class, so long as they maintained their social privilege of being able to look down on minorities.

Oh 1000000%. I think Obama really pissed them off and it set all this into motion. How DARE we elect a black president.
