The point here is not to say that all Trump backers have a viscerally negative reaction to African-Americans, though it’s undoubtedly the case that many of them do. The point, rather, is that Obama’s ascension — as well as his success and, perhaps most importantly, his endurance — is perceived by Trumpists as a threat to one of their last sources of stability and comfort. Namely, the privilege of being white.

So, people's stupidity created Trump. We already knew that though
Obama will probably go down as my favorite president of all time. He is truly an effective communicator and has gotten so much done despite the Republicans fighting desperately to make sure he hasn't. The Republicans complain about him not getting anything done, and yet they are the ones blocking him from that. They have a hateful mentality towards him with very little basis -- they simply have distinguished him as an enemy and want to destroy him. There is no compromise. No logic. Just hate.

I love this statement. I do not understand why they are so hellbent on making it difficult for Obama to do his job.

basically. There are many things to question but they chose to hate because of what Obama represents.
This is seriously the most ridiculous article I have ever read. The spin on this is so asinine I'm surprised this writer even has a job. Donald Trump is a populist former liberal who capitalized on the people who are normally considered republicans and their distrust of THEIR REPUBLICAN LEADERS.
The fact that this author insinuates that the only people who support Trump are people bitter that theres a black man in the white house is straight up ridiculous. That makes no sense and is counterintuitive. I'm sorry I don't care what some of your opinions are a vast majority of the country does not care about what race Obama is. People don't like his policies obviously because he is liberal and many people aren't but there wasn't the "destruction of the white supremacist hierarchy" the day he entered office. People don't like government period. Wow this author is so misguided, get real.
