Exactly that. To Trump's legion of lemmings, he appeals to their baser instincts, allowing them to act on their racist, xenophobic impulses which they've had to keep under wraps for years without fear of repercussion because they have a champion in the Oval Office. Trump, to paraphrase that asshole New Jersey sheriff, truly is the shining knight for aggrieved white people who want nothing to do with America having become a melting pot, who feel threatened by other races and who hate no longer being at the top of the societal pecking order. Those close minded deplorables are a lost cause that can't be reached under ANY circumstances, if they can't handle the realities of life in America in the 21st century, then they can just fuck off and die.
