I finally pinpointed what it is exactly that I resent the most about Trump voters

70. Hubris the most, among others.

(from Wiki, for my own clarity)

Hubris describes a personality quality of extreme or foolish pride or dangerous overconfidence, often in combination with (or synonymous with) arrogance.

Being a scientific type, this characteristic bothers me the most, and in ~90% of them, they have no validity in being that way. It's bad enough this late in life to be around anyone that will not engage in critical thinking, but I refuse to even speak with those that want to stuff their parroted philosophy down my throat without allowing any rational discussion.

Republicans were very precise and selective in choosing Americans they wanted to convert into their clan, beginning in Nixon's time or before. They've always had to have a boogie man and hired heartless operatives and political psychologists through the years such as Lee Atwater and Frank Luntz to design attack techniques with precision. They both induce new fears into vulnerable culture groups, but also take full advantage of existing ones.

This requires finding the personality types and subsets of society that are most vulnerable to brainwashing - those in fear of losing something (wealth, manhood, class distinction, etc.), those who are poorly educated, and those with ingrained cultural flaws such as racism, xenophobia and misogyny. Next, all you have to do is fund the brainwashing machinery - that was easy for them.

I could discuss in length the various personality and cultural types I've witnessed in my 70 years that have fallen prey to this disease of America, but won't bother you with that.

Of course, there's always the wealthy that are permanent fixtures of the Party and who are mostly visible only via their checkbooks. We all know they're supporters out of pure raw greed. I don't expect an euphony in any of them until the Nation is on the verge of total collapse. But, I will never allow myself to forget that these are the people who brought this plague upon the USA.

SheShe, you owe me eye bleach, LOL.............
