Emitt Till died in 1955. That's over 60 years ago. Like all snowflakes, you're living in the past. Your glory days are behind you. Now blacks whine when they get shot holding up a gas station.I can't think of a time in recent memory where black terrorist have killed "cracker babies" (your words not mine). But I can remember when white ultra RW terrorists killed black babies by bombing churches and, in some instances, as in the Emmett Till case , beating them beyond recognition in the process of killing them or by lynching.. Some black militants have mouthed an opinion consistent with your charges without following through. But as you said, people like that are, hopefully, a minority.No doubt there are people just as you describe just like there are Black racists who favor killing "cracker babies", but that's not the majority. The majority of Americans are unhappy with the direction of the nation and thought both candidates were deplorable which is why both Trump and Hillary had the lowest favorability of any candidates in living history.I don't think Trump was ever the choice for establishment conservatives at all. He came into vogue by choosing to run on the Repub-lie-con ticket with a populist agenda. The populist appeal of his revolting bigotted and misogynistic worldview attracted kindred Spirits like flies. In effect he showed us just the ugly underside of the konservative cabal.Republicans only side with Trump because he's the President on a Republican ticket, but anyone who thinks he was the RNC's first, or even 6th, choice, is deluded.All depends on the findings of of the investigation....I bet they're 17 "Rinos" (non-chump) GOPers if there's evidence...Who knows?Thank you for the very eloquent and well written response. Although I doubt Trump will be impeached (I think he'll resign first), obviously you are 100% correct on your explanation of the process. Kudos!

Americans voted for Trump because he wasn't the status quo. Let's not forget that on November 8th Americans only had a few choices; Hillary, Trump, Third Party or not voting at all.
Nevertheless, the Specter of populism brings a dimension to the social hate game that you don't seem to recognize.. We've seen this script before.
Unhappiness with the way the nation is going is a common theme reverberating throughout the right ring white male community. That's a strange outlook considering the economy improved considerably under the democrats.
So if economics is not the issue, what is? Seemingly, the jingoistic fervor so apparent on the right is a phenomenon conjured by the ultra-rich to maintain the status quo. They know that if blacks, whites, Asians and Mexicans all get together for their own economic benefit. The days of the American oligarchy are numbered.
