I know significant personalities that comprise the Trump Base--it's made of my brother, my sister-in-law, unjust legal practitioners, and my neighbors.
American politicians and parties must acknowledge that these people will always vote against sanity, compassion, and idealism simply because they can. They consider it sport to sacrifice their own children to the destructive vanity and whimsy of the bigots, hypocrites, and thugs--a "blood sport" that they will cling to until the day that they pass from this world. There is no educating them, no debating with them, and no developing them into Maslow-mature human beings.
"The Base" portion of the voting public will always exist in this modern era, and so any party or person with machinations to participate in politics must factor its existence in to their agendas and practices, building a defense. Short of that, The Base will consume your identity, daily routine, your priorities, and progress. Don't believe me? How has that first 6 months of a Trump presidency gone?
