      Why not. From its inception this place was populated by religious fruits, tax dodgers, the desperate and uneducated. Hell, half of the country fought a grizzly war against the other half that the losing half still isn’t over. The losing half started it so that men much like Trump could own other men. The slave owners weren’t the ones doing the fighting, of course, rich men don’t fight wars. They stirred up the poor, unlearned yokels, told them that they were being oppressed and sent them to die and kill, which they did. There’s still folks who claim “the South will rise again”.

      Trump is as American as baseball.
