My new explanation on why Trump supporters still stand by him...

[ginnyinWI]

53. I would add

Angry. Angry that a black man became President. Angry that a white woman was running for the office.

Anger is close to fear for many. Fear of change, fear of losing, "something" but not sure what it is. What it is is the feeling that they are riding on top of the heap and, whatever they haven't accomplished in life, or whatever they don't have, at least they have their position on the top of the heap.

Actually, doesn't racism and bigotry also go back to fear?

I am a white woman but I don't need to be above anyone else to feel worthwhile. I have what I have done with my life, which includes a college education. I don't need to fall back on the color of my skin!

I have relatives, though, who do. They chose to ride that horse called Trump in the last election in order to get back what they "lost".
