Lori Cintron Knipel suggests that Trump's supporters project their own aspirations onto him, believing that supporting a rich billionaire can lead them to success, despite his failures.
Knipel draws parallels between contemporary sentiments and Steinbeck's idea of Americans as 'temporarily embarrassed capitalists,' reflecting on the psychological need for self-identification with success.
The lawmaker's personal history and community experiences shape her views on Trump's impact, recalling the past discrimination under his father's real estate ventures in Brooklyn.
Knipel expresses deep concern about the future of the upcoming election, highlighting a troubling trend in how Trump's supporters maintain their allegiance despite controversies.
