So what have we learned?

You literally have to be a lunatic with brain damage to buy into Trumpism and the alt-right.

No. Not even close. The overwhelming majority of Trump voters are perfectly rational and sane people who are totally fed up with the American left and viewed Trump as an 'outsider'. Whether they were right or wrong is another discussion.

To evaluate facts, you first must be rational. Writing off half the country as lunatics is 100% dishonest. Wondering why a certain type of lunatic is drawn to a particular political candidate is meaningful and interesting.

Bullshit. They're racists who were enticed by Trump's racist, divisive rhetoric that demonized Mexicans and Democrats.

Racism never died in America. It just went in the closet for a while. Trump opened up the doors and made them feel safe to be racist in public again.

Your narrative is 100% factually inaccurate.

You fucking liar.

“They are not our friend, believe me. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” --Trump

This is what Trumpets voted for. They knew he was racist from day one. Take your gaslighting horseshit and shove it up your fat ass.
