Trump’s Appeal © 2016
Part 2
People have wondered how can Trump insult people for sport, be exposed as a serial liar, be accused of running a scam university, make overtures to Russia to spy on Hillary Clinton, and yet remain popular with his supporters.
The fact is, Trump supporters don’t care about any of that. They don’t care if he’s two-thirds of a Rice Crispy, who has snapped, cracked, and now, he’s ready to pop. They don’t care because he is appealing to their racist, religious, gender, and sexual prejudices. That's why he can say anything, and they still love him.
What Trump’s supporters had been thinking privately, and in close groups with relatives and friends for years, Trump has been saying publicly. He has given them cover and made it acceptable for bigots to come out of the closet.
Not surprisingly, the least educated among us and the least informed people are among his biggest supporters. They naively believe Trump is for them. But Trump is and always has been for Trump. That’s something he’s proven over and over. - Making Sense of

Part 1
Countless times, Donald Trump has been exposed as a compulsive liar. Just as often, he’s behaved like a spoiled, hypersensitive brat, who became unhinged at the slightest provocation whenever things didn’t go his way.
You would need a scorecard to keep track of the people he’s insulted. He insulted nearly every one of his competitors during the Republican primary. Then, he referred to Ms. Clinton as “Crooked Hillary.” Now he’s calling her “The Devil.” This is from a grown man who’s behaving like a third grader.
But there’s more. In interviews on foreign policy, Trump showed he didn’t have a clue, and he clearly didn’t know what he was talking about. The other day, after feedback from his comments about a fallen soldier, Trump now is claiming the election may be rigged against him. Something is wrong with this man. Is he also paranoid?
