Re: Why would anyone vote for Trump?

(Anonymous) 2015-11-25 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
He appeals to their understanding of the world and their emotional feelings in a way no other candidate does. They have a real, material feeling that the country is going down the tubes, that the economy doesn't function, that immigrants and Mexicans are dangerous, and he confirms all of those beliefs. They think the official story is wrong and that the Establishment is lying to them - political correctness etc - and he confirms this and claims to reveal the hidden truth. And he appeals to their sense of strength and how they understand things truly getting done. He gives them a sense of coming out on top again, an idea that if you just listen to him the world will make sense again. And all the people who disagree with him are the liars or the enemy anyway. In other words, they support him because - given their worldview - he's the perfect candidate, and they purely don't give a shit about any of the reasons that we think he's terrible. They don't share the belief that those things are terrible.
