Unmanly

The Atlantic: Donald Trump, the Most Unmanly President - Why don’t the president’s supporters hold him to their own standard of masculinity? by Tom Nichols
And yet, many of these same men expect none of those characteristics from Trump, who is a vain, cowardly, lying, vulgar, jabbering blowhard.

"...the people Trump despises most, love him the most. The people who are voting for Trump for the most part … He’d be disgusted by them..."

A very well written article. Sad truth.

IMO, it's kind of a companion piece to Deepak Chopra's "America's Shadow" article first published before the 2016 election.

It seems to really be about the fact that Trump pisses off the people these guys despise. And because of that, they're happy to go to the mat for him.
