He's just as racist as his supporters. He got busted once for discriminating against non-white applicants to his rental properties, even when their financial status was just fine.
Trump has done exactly nothing that an innocent person would. It's not the erratic behavior or the worry, but how he's made so many moves and plans to cover up schemes. It's not like he has some cutesy embarrassing secret. This is the highest office in our country. He's implicated himself via sheer arrogance. >


Trump has done exactly nothing that an innocent person would.

It's also serving as a refuge in audacity though. Kind of like "Everyone knows I'm innocent, so I can do whatever it takes to shake off the meanies bullying me." More like everyone knows he's one of the dumbest humans alive propped up by narcissism, generational wealth, and white grievance. >

I'm less inclined to include white grievance in the list because that particular nonsensical worldview requires some semblance of thought (and flawed of course). Trumps actions and blatherings seem more akin to a Pavlovian response tied to a one dimensional short list of ideas that nearly overwhelm the two working brain cells that comprise his bandwidth. >

I guess I should have been more clear. I agree it's not his own white grievance (he cares for one person only and that's himself) but rather he is supported in part because of others' racism. Conservatives in the US felt absolutely slapped in the face when Obama got up there, and then with Trump saying things that might have been political suicide for others, they saw a savior in him.
