More generally, one of the reasons why Trumpkins support Trump is because they believe that the bad stuff he wants to do just won't happen to them.
Ending Obamacare is fine, but if a specific Trumpkin loses his health insurance with a replacement, then he's no longer a Trumpkin. Banning refugees is fine, but if suddenly your green card holding spouse can't get in, then Trump is a problem. If you're a conservative teacher, Trump is great, but if he's going to put DeVos in charge of education, then he's a problem. Civil forfeiture is great, but if some Trumpkin has the misfortune of having his assets wrongly seized, his hate for Trump will be massive.
There are a lot of Trump supporters who will eventually be specifically ****ed by Trump's policies, but until they are personally ****ed, Trump is fine. ****ing over other people is fantastic.
