TRUMP SUPPORTERS ARE NOT THE IMAGE OF AVERAGE AMERICANS

…Some average Trump supporters.
 
Trump rally’s are intimidating to average American voters.
 
Donald Trump projects a poor role model as he has continues to incite his crowds for striking out at the protestors at his rally’s.  This model is now being interpreted as giving permission for his followers to be hurtful and vulgar.
 
This was all quite revealing when Trump arrived at his Boca Raton, Florida rally.  The comments that came from his crowds pretty much defines the questionable results of his chaotic campaigning method, and those final results are pretty ugly.
 
Here is a slice of the responses to Trump’s statements from those in his crowds.
 
On Friday, we went to Chicago,” the billionaire presidential candidate told his supporters. They booed the mention of the Trump event that was canceled supposedly because of protestors. Trump continued: “We had some, I would say they were — let’s be nice —
 
A--holes!” a man near the front yelled and the crowd laughed.
 
Trump mentioned one of his opponents, Florida’s Marco Rubio. This produced a chorus of boos and insults: “He sucks!” “Deport him!” “Send him back!”
 
He mentioned another opponent, Ted Cruz. The crowd answered with a chant of “Lyin’ Ted!” and cries of “Liar!” and “He’s full of s---!”
 
Trump mentioned Hillary Clinton. Audience members shouted: “F--- Hillary!” “Put her in jail!” “Waterboard Hillary!”
 
One man rolled out his “Silent Majority Stands With Trump” sign and yelled: “F--- China!”
 
The crowd then chanted: “Build the wall! Build the wall! Build the wall!
 
Trump supporters had to yell for security when a young man “John” got into a political argument with some Trump fans. “Get him out!” someone shouted.
I didn’t say anything!” John pleaded as guards, taking the word of his accusers, led him away.
 
One of only four blacks that had come to just see what Trump was all about had more than one attendee walk up to him and ask, “What the hell are you doing here?”
 
There was an announcement early on asking Trump’s followers not to harm those who “have taken advantage of Mr. Trump’s hospitality.”
 
However, that was a message counter to Trump’s message on Sunday when he had declared that he might pay the legal fees of a man who out-of-the-blue, sucker-punched a protestor.  The 72 year old man that did the hitting also added when asked, that “If there was a next time, the victim might need to be killed”.
 
Trump’s operation seems to delight in these confrontations, which fuel the crowd’s energy.  Most of the attendees were white men, and their T-shirts and hats claimed they were gun owners, veterans, Marines and Harley motorcycle riders.
 
But what was interesting was that before Trump arrived, these attendees conversations were quiet and there were no outward expressions of aggression.  But after Trump arrived, it was like a switch had been thrown.  They pumped their fists, flashed thumbs up,  chanted “Trump! Trump! Trump!” and they hung on the candidate’s every word.  Some were said to be visibly trembling.
 
It was very much as history had recorded when the German public had attended the Hitler rally’s in the 1930’s.  It was all very scary.
 
Trump captivated the crowd with words that were both desperate and violent: “Our country is going to hell. . . . We’re sitting on a very big, fat, ugly, bubble. . . . We’re like the lap dog for the world. . . . Drugs are pouring across our borders. . . . They’re chopping off heads. . . . You see so many people being killed. . . . The jobs are being sucked out of the country . . . We’re losing with everybody everywhere.”
 
The bizarre staging of Trump’s rally’s is also very spooky.
 
In this Florida event, before Trump appeared, a woman read the crowd an autopsy report of her son, killed by an illegal immigrant.  She said, “The media is in an uproar about the tone of Mr. Trump’s campaign, but not that we’re burying our children every day at the hands of illegal aliens.” She bizarrely accused Marco Rubio of spending “blood money” ,  but not explaining what she meant.  She also asked the senator which of his children he “would give up for a foreigner to have a nicer life.”  All totally weird and off-the-wall.  You just kind of walked away scratching your head.
 
Trump then came to the rescue.  He told the crowd that in a Trump presidency they could “relax” while he eliminated the Islamic State as he beat up the world on trade issues. “We’re gonna become rich again,” he promised. “We’re gonna become great again.”
 
The resounding cheers and applause from the crowd said that Trump’s approach had won the day, one more time.  Very, very weird and scary.
