We are not the 'torch and pitchfork' crowd. That is how the leftist 'intellectual' elites characterized Trump supporters ...
I didn't say you or your friends were. Fact is, Mr. Trump has the support of a lot of disaffected middle class Americans who have seen their good jobs disappear and their lifestyle erode.
The pitchfork comment is a reference to an article in Wired written by a high tech tycoon. He was warning that if America did not do something about the growing income disparity in the US, the folks with pitchforks and torches would come (revolution as it were...)
It has nothing to do with uneducated white rednecks. FWIW, Mr. Trump is a member of the elite class and your references to the leftist 'intellectual' elite belongs in the same trash bin as the 'white redneck bullshit you hear from some on the left.
