5. My theory is they like Trump because he allows them to unleash their inner asshole.

They are tired of holding it in. They want to be as racist, sexist, classless, uneducated, gun toting cowboys possible, and just the biggest assholes, shitheads, and fuckheads this side of the Atlantic. Trump allows them to let it all hang out in the open. Rules? Society? Who needs that shit? They're uneducated and unsophisticated and proud of it.
