CBS News Talks to Trump Voters and Can’t Believe What They Found
RUSH: They’re not idiots. They’re not racists. They’re not Nazis. They’re not members of the Klan. They’re independently intelligent.

And yet they are being portrayed, you are being asked to believe (or you're having it swarmed all over you) that this is Trump's base. It's a smear job.
