Nailed it. When women and Black people knew their place, when people of alternate sexual orientations kept that shit in the closet, and when everyone attended a proper white Christian church on Sundays, those were the days.

It’s not a new thought but self-loathing has been consuming millions of Americans for some time. People who hate themselves tend to project that hatred towards other people, towards organizations, ideas and especially change. It’s no surprise that these people are attracted by a vessel for their hate. Trump hasn’t so much been a leader as he’s been a model of self-loathing denial and projection for the millions in the MAGA cult.
