Trump's presence makes his supporters feel GOOD about their views.
Like they're not alone, but have friends and good company.

I would agree with this. Having someone who is famous and wealthy validating their (bigoted, narcissistic) views is empowering. Trump and his followers truly seem to believe that rules of any kind simply do not apply to them, and it is not only okay but completely right that they should trample and take advantage of others who get in their way. Including younger sisters. :(
