text: Jones has correctly identified the primary reason why white christian males in particular voted for Trump.
  
  They felt threatened by a system that was attacking their "white privilege". The fear was that they may become a "minority". Trump's rhetoric to make America "great" again gave them an unattainable hope that would restore their privilaged status.
  
  It will be interesting to see how they respond when they realise that this was only a wishful dream, a future fantasy, that enabled another white male of very questionable character to be elected president; a white male who is one of the very few privileged elite belonging to the oppulent minority.
  
  This has been compounded by the resurgence of white males who are "christian" fundamentalists of all groupings (born again,  protestant, evangelicals and, of course, catholics).
