Current Events » in reply to At what point will Trump go too far for his supporters?

I honestly don't think he could become too irrational or xenophobic for his core supporters

Now, if he were to start talking about an inclusive, caring society... respect for other people and cultures...or maybe the pressing need for industrialized nations to show some earnest concern for the health of the planet...then he'd be at risk of alienating his most devoted worshippers.

In terms of moderates, though, I don't in any way understand how they're still with him. Are they focussed on a single issue to the exclusion of all else? (And what issue would that be, anyway?) Are many of those voters perhaps further to the right than they themselves realize? I mean, can you call yourself a moderate when you support a politician who *cannot* bring himself to condemn white nationalists?
