Crime rates are down. The economy is going gang busters for the middle and upper-middle class white people who form Trump's base. Biden hasn't shut down any churches. Undocumented people aren't taking jobs from anyone when the unemployment rate is 3%. Look around...things are no worse than usual.

Trump voters are experiencing the same basic reality we are. But they view it through the lens of the "far right imaginary" that Trump and his media partners weave with their words and pictures...suddenly that one crime in that one place 2000 miles away gets turned into an immediate threat to you.
