Donald Trump succeeded with the deplorables by listening to them. (AP photo))Perhaps the most troubling aspect of a Donald Trump presidency is not the man's big-headed, pig-headed penchant for self-promotion, but the shock wave of hate he has awakened. Indeed, one of the few Trump supporters I met in Ithaca was an African-American magician who does magic tricks on the commons. I later saw him on local access TV promoting Mr Trump. Mr Trump succeeded with "deplorables" because he paid attention to them.
