[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Wow that's interesting.  My in-laws were always stout republicans, but then switched to Democrats to vote for Obama.  It was as if Obama's presidency helped them become more vocally racist, and then Trump helped to open up the floodgates.  They're not Trump supporters though.

I feel like voting for Obama made them feel like they were giving blacks a chance and proved they were not racist.  They were enchanted with the idea this was a nation which allowed a black person, through their own hard work, character, and drive, become the most powerful person in the country.   And then were utterly disappointed with his performance once he was elected.  And then felt justified for judging blacks who could not pull themselves out of poverty and addiction.  Because if Obama could do it, anyone can do it.

Partly, I think they are grappling with their own racism - which maybe they didn't confront or talk about prior to Trump's presidency.
