Having formerly been a rural Republican, there is no good reason to vote Trump. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. People vote for him because they're some mixture of uninformed, misinformed, psychotic, or psychopathic. The broader GOP party is fully culpable, too.

Let's explore some profiles:

17-year-old "lel kek" 4chan/8chan nihilist troll who just wants to act like a dumbass and think Trump is so cooolll.

Grandpa who never left his home town. Never been on an airplane. Watches fox news 24/7.

Your crazy uncle who listens to right wing radio while commuting to work and has a major temper problem, loves his compensatory guns that give him a sense of agency in his sad pathetic life. He loves to blame immigrants for his own problems.

The racist sexist meth head or anyone overly exposed to lead.

The good Christian church goer wrapped around abortion and contrary to the pillar of individual freedom is desperately trying to arbitrate their own sense of morality on others.

The gullible uninformed coworker that doesn't tune into politics all that much but they're a crowd pleaser and all his coworkers talk about is how great Trump is, so must be true. They're not educated all that much and so struggle to use critical-thinking to discern truth from falsehoods.

The grifting pillow salesmen who recognized dumb people are easily grifted so starts feeding the choir and selling them merchandise in one form or another. Bannon fits this.

Deadbeats who love fake it til you make it and see that it worked for Trump. They love that their lifelong habits of bullying are validated by him and so feel empowered.
