Only a certain demographic of the U.S. supports him. These are mostly right-winged, blue collar workers who are frightened by "scary" Muslims and confiscation of their guns. Yet they fail to realize that almost every mass shooting in U.S. schools and movie theaters has been committed by trigger happy white boys from suburbia, not bearded Muslims or women covered in hijab or burqas, so their logic is seriously flawed. No one is trying to take away their guns. The GOP candidates promote fear and the threat of an enemy, and this is the scariest way to control a population and build mass xenophobia. Not to mention I don't support their views on female reproductive rights, which is a whole separate issue.
