In trying to understand why people voted for Trump I have been thinking about this oft-discussed category of rural white Americans who are upset by how society has changed. Specifically, culturally distinct groups now have much influence, whether identified through ethnicity or sexual orientation or whatever else. In imagining being uneasy at my country paying increasing heed to people I don't understand then I can better see the appeal of voting for somebody with whom I would feel comfortable having a beer. Personally I tend to enjoy learning about different people and customs but I appreciate that we are not all like that.
