[quote=FlyerInHi]Here’s a good article about trump supporters.

If Donald Trump looked at a demographic profile of his supporters, he would sneer. They are disproportionately out of work or not seeking it. If they do have a job, they’re probably working with their hands, maybe something a machine could do better or someone overseas could do cheaper. A large share have only a high school education, which they increasingly find useless. Trump, not one for the niceties of political correctness, might call such people “losers.” I think they’re something else as well: suckers.[/quote]Yikes, the author of the op-ed piece is really “jaded.” Trump’s short speech in IN was great, btw!
I have Trump supporters all around me who have been “pestering” me since mid-Feb. NONE are actually “angry,” Nearly ALL are from the “Caucasian race” but NONE could actually be considered more than 25% “white,” and ALL are employed or otherwise financially solvent enough to keep paying their bills until they die. I think the author is “over-generalizing” the residents of hard-hit IN, but even so, there are likely PLENTY of employed, financially solvent voters in IN who will vote for Trump. I actually predicted it would be a very close race in IN on this very thread! Now, I’m not so sure. I guess I wasn’t familiar enough with its specific demographics to make a knowledgeable prediction.
