A lot of the support isn't because they like Trump. After the shooting yesterday, seeing Trump not cower andshow strength by throwing up a fist and yelling "fight" resonated. People saw it as "gangsta" or him being a "warrior". Even before then as far back as the 2016 election, Trump was viewed as a "gangsta". He was every bit the "nikka" they wanted Obama to be. They wanted someone belligerent, wreckless, loud, and brash because some of our people equate that to being real whereas being educated, tactful, and classy is equated to being phoney, try hard or even trying to be white.
Doesn't mean they will vote for him. I wasn't a supporter before and him getting clipped by a bullet doesn't change that.
