Absolutely spot on post. I have experience with white Trump guys. Former classmates, brother in law, some neighbors, guys who approached us when they saw our Never Trump bumper stickers, other tennis parents during conversations.

In every case they fit into exactly the profile you discuss. Not one time have I met a cool, confident, successful, pleasant, willing to give then listen to others opinions, sense of humor....you know, the guy you want to spend time with at a cook out....and have them been a Trumper. Every Trumper I have met if the guy you just want to avoid if at all possible.
