The typical U.S. American voter is stupid, mean, and fearful of the future.

They wrongly believe that bullies like Trump, equally incurious as they are, will stand up for them.

I can't claim to be disappointed, it was made very clear to me as a young man, sometimes by extreme acts of violence, that I would never be accepted into their communities because I was among those they feared. I'm completely alienated from the affluent 99% white middle class world I grew up in. There's no way in hell I would ever go back.

I'll not be suffering the foolishness of the Trump voter however this turns out. I will not let them live in my head and I will not be afraid.
