    I am adjacent to a lot of Trump voters through my wife relating conversations from her 95% Trump voting company. Other than having to stamp out some offensive exuberance, there has been no reaction to any of it. They are just excited about the ascendency of the right and waiting for the “benefits” to percolate through society.

    Despite having gay kids they support, etc. Any doubts or second thoughts they are having are not being shared. Could be the network effect of not wanting to be the first to break faith, but that could just as easily be wishful thinking.
