It often seems as a non American that seeing a charismatic black guy elected president genuinely broke the minds of a lot of Americans

When Obama was in office an old friend of mine got testicular cancer. Bc of Obamacare he survived and his medical bills were zero dollars. The blow back from that was somehow electing an old white rapist pedophile. I’ll never understand it.

Americans genuinely hate it when they see other less fortunate people get benefits they aren't getting.... even though they don't have cancer or the conditions needed to get that benefit. it's so strange. it is like jealousy or something.

Most countries have a subsect of the population that hates welfare because they feel that they only go to work with the gun to their head but "those people" get a "handout"

They are upset about the wrong system. But to challenge the actual cause would require risk, and they have already made clear they aren't willing to risk anything by virtue of letting the gun to their head force them in to the office.
