It's not us, it's THEM. Repeating from yesterday, there is a valid argument that it's not Trump as much as it's his willing co-dependent minions. Under Jungian theory racism is endemic, not taught.

Collective racial subconscious? The archetypal "Hero with a Thousand Faces." Jung, who btw was "Aryan" himself, analyzed Hitler as a "medicine man" and voice of a German collective unconscious. First, he said two types of strong men existed in primitive society: the chief who was physically powerful and the medicine man who was strong not in himself but by the power people projected onto him.

Unfortunately the media feeds this theory. Trump may be a demagogue, and he may have a limited sense of reality, but as ridiculous his appearance and demeanor is, most of his cult members identify with him.

Democrats once played that too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHwYvHM0dMY
