A lot of information to digest.

Trump's 'unexpected' victory is a rebellion of the people, who want to take back control of their own lives. There is no 'actual envy', in my own opinion, of the so-called un-educated (i.e., non-college degree) working class.

As opposed to the liberals/progressives' ever expanding Power of the State.

“Make America Great Again”
Translation: Reverse the deleterious effects of the “Great Society.”

When a “liberal” says “society” he means nothing other than government.

We don’t need the racism that was far more prevalent in the ‘fifties, but we desperately do need the respect for honest work which prevailed then. LBJ’s Great Society terrible government program corrupted society more than it improved it. And did so precisely by denigrating the true source of self-respect: Joe Biden’s three-letter word, JOBS.

I don’t love Trump. I don’t trust him. I hope some strange sense of noblesse oblige drives him to serve Americans, rather than big corporations and the state.

But then, I didn’t like Obama, or trust him, but initially I had some hope that he might mend race relations and provide a positive example to young black men.

I do fear falling, and I do fear what my country is becoming - a police state, split by factions, populated by foreigners, many of whom have no true allegiance to this nation. Many of the newcomers come from countries where the only chance of safety and a decent life comes from being rich - that is not what I want for MY country.

I think the point of this article is that only rural uneducated whites are in a downward spiral and are irrationally angry and trying to do something to stop the inevitable slide.

There are no unwashed uneducated losers in the more densely populated and genetically diverse cities.

If it's a "fear of falling", then it's a fear of falling into darkness because we're following our own fading light instead of the Light Eternal.

If you stay on a road long enough, eventually you'll get to where it goes. Unfortunately, we're way off course after taking some dangerous detours.

A malignant malware has infected our nation's GPS and is letting us rewrite all of our OEM references, maps and definitions in our own image.

If we were to consult the old maps our ancestors used back in the day, we'd see our errors and we'd try to reboot our navigation system and get back on track before it's too late.

Unfortunately, far too many of US are having too much fun on this road and just can't be bothered with any of that.

This is all obvious to the average Trump supporter, as most are fairly adept at map reading and recognizing the signs as they go by.

Rebooting our nation's navigation and getting US back on track is what Trump is here to do.

If you've seen the old maps, then you have a good idea about what's waiting for US when we get to where this road we're being made to follow is going.
