12. They aren't a bloc of voters

They are cult/movement.

I live in the 6th wealthiest county in America. Those people with Trump Flags on their porches were not worried about prices.

They hate the same people he does.

This is cultural. Their ideal culture is one of total domination of white Christians over anyone else.

There is not a single policy that drives their undying adoration and commitment.

It's a cultural phenomenon similar to what Italy saw in 1925.
