It is my very unfounded nor scientific belief that there are a lot of people, most actually. walking around with childhood Trauma or trauma. And for some of these people, they have a deep wound that they have neither acknowledge nor explored. And the wound can be exacerbated by all manner of life events. And the wound can prevent one from empathizing or sympathizing with others. An unhealed wound, grows, and becomes all encompassing, a seething just below the surface. Trump, with his rhetoric, taps directly into this wound. Of course, he knows how to do this because he is a walking wound himself.

Which is why I’ve always said once Hilary Clinton came out with It takes A Village, the wannabe fascists were all over her with lies and smears and trumped up investigations to destroy her. Imagine if the Clinton’s had gotten her health care proposals thru way back then. There would be a lot fewer vulnerable minds for the fascist to grow their hate. Entirely different times we’d be living in.
Republican propaganda from the moment republicans took her measure kept Hillary Clinton fighting for legitimacy from Arkansas to New York. Among the best of public servants, she was slandered during her entire public career by the GOP.
Correct - to their credit, they recognized very early that she was special, and an existential threat to their power. She was literally bombarded with innuendo and lies and accusations for years. She almost overcame it, but with the help of Putin (who feared her as much as the Republicans) she came up a little short. I am a huge Hillary fan. If only.......

After 2016 many journalists linked djt voting counties to the unhealthiest based on multiple measures. So your belief is NOT unfounded!
I work on animal welfare stuff and this shows up in that arena as well. It's all connected, sadly.
Thank you! I have been listening to Dr. Gabor Maté a lot lately and he talks about this too.
