Finally, a mainstream article about poor white Trump lovers that gets it right....

55. Some people have suggested that their "ire"

sprang from Obama's two terms. A decidedly white Republican from Illinois, just prior to the 2008 campaign, had no compunction about stating on a discussion board I participated in that there was "just no way that n****r should be allowed in our "White" House. I was astounded then by this virulence, and it's made me think that this is at the very root of Trump's success. He told them (especially when he started the whole birther issue) that it was perfectly okay to hate people of colour, and most especially their own President. He will continue to relate to them in the very same way -- since he has no conscience whatsoever -- and they are too bigoted and stupid to ever admit that he has manipulated them to death and legitimized (in their eyes) their own thoughts and behaviour.
Makes me want to cry every time I think about it......
