That’s not all the support Trump gets. Some guys respect him as well. Especially the ones who can relate in some manner to his experience.
Even though he’s not been saying it, I think Trump kind of qualifies to be redneck.
He’s a Queens redneck. They grow up playing stickball, stoopball and all the other low-rent games of the street. He’s not unlike the more working-class Queens kid, Chris Walken.
He was forced to fix toilets and paint basements as a kid and was made to listen to loud complaints from middle-class yentas. Not easy work! And real estate is not beanbag, either.
