This is exactly it. It’s white Trump wins. Why people are willing to overlook all of his craziness- because his platform is one of radical change. He may be crazy and he may be full of shit but at least he is talking about change. And when you’re hurting and you see the entire country hurting and you see nobody in charge giving a fuck, or worse telling you this is how it’s supposed to be, you want radical change.
Quite true. Especially since we don’t seem to study history anymore. Forget world history, we barely seem to remember our own history past 6 months ago.

Essentially: the status quo of the past 30 years is dead (and its never coming back), some people just haven’t realized it yet.
Very hard to identify the end of an empire while your living in it.
