re: #176 Barefoot Grin
In a very large part, Trump’s campaign is built around the idea that many Americans feel like “losers”, that a sense of failure haunts many Americans, and that it is this angst which drives things like Tea Partyism.
Trump’s probably right, as many of us who have followed the rise of the hate-right in current times have focused in on why so many in the South try to rewrite the Civil War.
Trump is the promised escape from our collective failures.
