This. Is so true. My brother is a Trump fan and he just doesn't care that the man has the character of an evil overlord. I've seen a change in my brother's behavior of late as well; his emails and phone conversations are more abrasive and he is less willing to discuss things rationally. My own big brother is becoming a bully - rude, selfish, rapacious, thoughtless, uncaring of others' feelings, dismissive of my opinions, and utterly intolerant. It's horrible to witness close up. He thinks protestors at Trump rallies deserve to be beaten and abused.
I can't understand the psychology behind it. What in the world is the appeal?
