Maybe also would be good to have a a better definition of what "helping win means. Is it that he is racist and his voters were racist. Did they become more racist or have always been so and were just waiting for someone like Trump to emerge. And then what did they exactly hope Trump would do for their cause. I haven't seen that explained well in the studies. Maybe I missed it by accident. > Not that I needed sociologists to confirm what I knew about my friends and family who voted for Trump, But what is their logic there. They saw the racism in Trump and identified with it? Why not vote for Clinton, her "superpredator" remark is pretty racist and maybe association by proxy with her husband's "tough on crime" policy would make more sense. That policy was more hurtful to the black community than what Trump ever did. I looked at the first study. Thanks for the link. One thing that jumps out is that they only picked millennials. Doesn't that exclude say auto-workers from Michigan, steel mill workers, and other pre-millennial blue collar workers from key states which Hillary should have kept blue like the Democrats did in the past? Did they become racist in the last 4 years? Besides most millennials voted for Hillary in general. So the premise that they are making an effort to really understand why people voted for Trump is a bit suspect. Going by what I know about Republicans so far, I can believe that there are more racist people voting Republican candidates in. But I don't think that is the primary reason they voted for him. Also whether we think the president has any effect on the economy or not, he seems to claim to bring black unemployment to a 17 year low. For being elected to advance a racist agenda he is not doing that good of a job delivering results.
