A good expose'. But you know Trump supporters, if presented with the proof (not that this article in and of itself is proof, but references are provided within) will all deny that they are anything like those people described in the article while displaying half the symptons at any point and time.

Towards the end of this long narrative, there's a description of how to actually sway the opinions of the strongly conservative. It's more like turning the handle their way but a little further, thereby getting them to look at themselves critically: [theatlantic.com]

Racism, greed and deliberate ignorance. Sad.

Two things struck me: 1) how many traits were fear motivated 2) few if any traits were good for broader social cohesion.

@alliwant There you have it....

Unfortunately all of the ignorance is not willful, and they have children, and usually too many children. The incredible ignorance leads to all of the above.
