I love how the rest of America is expected to have empathy for the Trumpists, but the Trumpists are never expected to even try to empathize with anyone else.

Black people, women, LGBT people, immigrants, non-Christians, etc, are all just saying, "We want a seat at the table."

White Trump voters are saying, "We're entitled to be at the head of the table for no reason other than being white Christians. And if we can't be at the head of the table and be able to arbitrarily deny others the right to sit at it, we'll just flip the table over and set it on fire."

They've heard them speak out since the 1960s. They feel that those groups have not contributed to American society in a proper way. They've seen LGBT change the school structures, the church structures. I don't have a problem with atheists, but don't force churches to abandon Christmas and Easter celebrations, don't force people to abandon Christmas parades, etc.

Lmao yeah exactly what is the "proper" way to contribute to society? I guess black people only contribute to society when they're working in the plantations, women only contribute to society when they're raising our children or cleaning the houses, gay people only contribute in the hair salons and fashion world, immigrants only contribute if they're white, and so on and so on.

Please give me an example of how the LGBTQIA community is changing the "school structures" (whatever that means) as well as the church structures? Lol

"Look, minorities can have a seat at the table. They just need to understand that white Christian men have already figured everything out, and that they need to agree with us."

you misunderstand.

most of the desperate vote knows trump is full of it.

they don't see him as a saviour...but a kind of revenge.
Exactly. The truth is that many of supporters only hide behind "lesser evil" as an excuse. The fact is that unless they get everything they want, they are willing to burn the country to the ground.

"Rule or Ruin" - they know they can't rule anymore, that their ranks are dwindling and mainstream America continues moving further away from them, so they want to ruin everything.
