He is an outloud overt racist, and because of that, he has given white people who have felt that way, the permission to support such vile hatred...and they love him for it. They don't want to have to pretend anymore that they believe all people were created equal. They like their unearned success (being white), and they want it to stay that way.
Trump just said at a rally that they (the Haitians in Springfield, OH) need to be sent back, and that was followed by chants of "send them back, send them back." Um...those Haitians are here LEGALLY, and most of the people in Springfield and the REPUBLICAN Ohio Governor have been glad they are here. They helped the economy in Springfield...and it was the right thing to do...we don't have enough workers here. We need to bring in even MORE LEGAL immigrants like these people from Haiti (Not Haitia, you idiot, JD Vance).
Before Trump came along, I had no idea HOW STUPID 40% of the country is. It's really unbelievable. They want an autocracy. Well, there are those around the world that they can move to if they really want that.
