NP - Trump Supporters One Year Later

[da kid]

Pete from West Virginia here. Trimp country. People are fucked here mentally speaking. Economics is the cause of the Trimp voters problems and then the right wing brainwashing they steadily subject themselves to in increasing doses tells them it's all race and gender related. It's all part of the "Libertarian" plan to destroy Democracy. People look at the corruption in politics and are vulnerable to arguments telling them that it is government itself that is the problem. Somehow we can have greater influence via the "free market".

I don't see support for that. I want to understand.

Trump hates whom?

His base hates whom?

And no, the answer isn't obvious. I live in one of the most intensely segregated areas of America—New England—which is a solid ice block of Democrats.

All these equations that divide R/D so cleanly don't ring true.

Wat part of this sentence is too hard for you to understand?  His base are rage against the Other addicts.  That's why they love Trump.  He is their cult leader.

The article features poor, ignorant Republicans and Democrats who voted for Trump.

There is a bad NFL joke at the end. And yes, it's an unfunny, racist joke.

But the equation you laid out doesn't support a QED stamp. It's rambling. The people in the article are obviously pretty dumb & poor. And absolutely downtrodden.

They hate themselves? Or are you implying that all people who look different from them are downtrodden? That's who they hate?

Att,
Is that a question?  "wat"

The equation is simple:

Racial Hate is morally worse than Economic Downtroddeness, in most minds, but not if you are a Republican.  They hate the downtrodden, because they are moral predators, establishing corruption.

Being poor is a sin in Republican world.  They eat sin like candy.  Republicans love sin.  Anything can become sin, if we let them go there.

The most important thing for his rock-solid base is that he hates the people they hate.  This has been obvious from the start but for some reason a whole lot of people want to put these people on some sort of pedestal and say they were primarily motivated by their economic status.
