having said the above, i have a gut feeling, that the usa is increasingly polarized with the whites voting as a bloc, in many regions.
the thing with trump, is that in his agenda, there is atleast one issue, which a person feels strongly about - illegal immigration, loss of jobs, wall street greed. the whites who support trump, not necessarily want a small government. they want their entitlements and freebies from uncle sam, but they all appear to fear the rise of minorities to proportion of power, outside of their population size. also the minorities are growing at such a rate, that the critical white base is now alarmingly fast declining.
this is what i think.
