Your post:
“The well educated middle class is seeing jobs going to H1Bs, and seeing their children having to take on huge loan burdens, while minority students get free rides. They are angry too.”
That may be a clue to the Trump Phenomenon. Trump tapped into a lot of anger in the country that people felt helpless to do anything about.
Trump promised to do something about it.
It felt good. At last, someone who understood and would help.
I get the initial response to Trump.
What I don’t get is people totally refusing to look at the real character and history of the man after we learned more about him.
I have and I've found a man who loves his country, unlike every globalist candidate running who only sees the American public as sheep to be fleeced. I see man with great successes and great failures that's he's overcome, someone who's exposed the corruption at the heart of the American system, someone who exposed Ted Cruz as the Lying Globalist Phony that he his. In Trump I see the first nationalist leader we've had since Reagan in age where the left is trying to kill the west through the mass importation of 3ed worlders.
