Trump has never changed - if the GOP hadn't jumped on the trainwreck called Trump in lieu of any other (more) serious candidate, he had left them on the spot and sought for another party like he actually did with the Democrats when they denied him the shot for the presidency.
And as long as you are white and affluent, Trump and the GOP are your BFF. If you are white and only middle class, you are only useful electoral cattle which needs to be fed from time to time. If you are white and poor...
What really goes beyond my scale of comprehension is anyone being not white rooting or even being active for the party which is doing anything to prevent them from true equality for heaven knows how long now. Must be some kind of Uncle Tom-mentality.
Illegal aliens? The Reps had always turned a blind eye on this as long as the migrants were cheap labourers. When they demanded to be accepted as part of the US society after years or decades of being tolerated, mostly doing those jobs which even the white trash declined as being below their dignity especially the Reps cried murder and made them illegals again.
What you are so convieniently doing is nothing else but DARVO.
I sure won't claim that the Democrats are like innocent angels from heaven but they sure are far more open toward diversity and equality.
