Yes, white-christian nationalists are resentful because of their fears surrounding the loss of their hegemonic position. However, I feel that Trumpism is part of our thanatos-eroticism zeitgeist, we love death in this culture. Automobiles, opioids, guns and Trump. Folks are miserable, understanding on some intrinsic level that their materially focused lives are spiritually bankrupt, so rather than take responsibility they embrace death and Trump hastens this apocalyptic desire. I hate using their language, but it's emblematic of a different form of decadence.

Awesome - I'm game. You are the Substack master.
