It's no coincidence that so many of his supporters claim a strong religious sentiment, and ownership of the moral high ground. But they've never understood what that means. They never reasoned out their moral stand, instead they adopted and heeded a set of rules based on the idea that if they don't follow those rules, they'll be eternally spanked in the afterlife.
When Trump - a man much more tangible than their god - comes along, and exhibits the behavior that he does while occupying the pinnacle of the political food chain, his supporters relegate their theological deity to second place, and elevate Trump to the top tier, as they celebrate being able to break as many rules as can be tested. They're somewhat freed from the chains that bound them theologically, even if they cannot necessarily act the same way legally within their oppressed and economically shackled existence. But they can at least vicariously live
through Trump.
'Pissing off liberals' is just part of that exciting new dynamic for these folks that seem to work hard at giving the impression that they find so little in life to be joyful about, primarily because they are incapable of finding joy otherwise, and never were given permission before now to openly act so childish without fear of having to pay some sort of social penalty. But in the aftermath of Trump's election, they can exact their petty 'revenge' and foist, with impunity, their inflated and unrealistic sense of personal injury upon others.
It's as if they're purposefully creating a
Trumpian America, wherein everyone grows older, but not everyone grows up.
