I actually appreciate stories like this because it shines a light on the fact that anybody is capable of being an unstable lunatic. Trump cultists are not actually always "blue collar." That should actually make us even more terrified when they are in occupations like this.

There was a news article which took a look at the demographics of the Trump Voter, and many of them are actually well educated, and well off. I forgot exactly the article Link, but it was so interesting.


Well yes, because the average Trump voter is basically just an average pre-Trump Republican voter, with all the country-club suburban elitism that includes.

I do think there is something to be said for the fact the *new voters* that Trump has brought into the Republican party are probably on average more working-class than the Republican voters that supported Romney or George W Bush, but the vast majority of Republicans who supported Bush and Romney are still Republicans today, and they make up the vast majority of Trump supporters.
