Are Trump supporters just fueled by Racism & Hate? (self.AskUSA)

Gonna keep this short and straight to the point, we all know how they act.

With trump siding with the Tech Bros Billionaires on immigration, even after his most die hard supporters were against it. I see several MAGAS just falling in line with Elon calling them stupid and that’s why we need more educated and qualified people to take these better jobs (whilst we’re on the cusp of deleting the Department of Education).

Anyone with functions eyes and ears can tell you they’ve been played, but they’re still deeply loyal to trump even though he back tracking on one of his biggest (and few) positions. Without mass deportations or hawkish immigration laws. What the hell does trump even offer to these people other than the occasional dog whistles they love?

I'd like to point out the ridiculous amount of faces being eaten by Leopards as a partial indicator. Trump and his cohort were willing to lie entirely (not uncommom among politicians, but they did a LOT) to attract voters and then right after the election started talking about their actual policies.

To be clear, a TON of people voted because yeah, they're racist. Thats just how America is at the moment. Being openly racist is at worst a mildly negative trait for the majority of stuff.
