  • It basically boils down to teams. Do you abandon your baseball team because they suck? Nope, you cling to them like grim death. Trump is an incompetent senile psycho? Sure, but he’s “my team”. You’d have to abandon your identity to switch teams.

    When I talk to people I suspect are Trumpers (they never come right out to me) they go on about things like illegal immigrants. I just nod and think “How do they hurt you? You love having cheap labor working on your house. You’d never want one of the jobs they have.” Things that really effect them, like the economy or the massive class divide, don’t register with them.
