This one cuts deep. I just (like 15 minutes ago) found that one of my childhood best friends who I haven't seen in at least a decade is avidly supporting Trump on facebook. This kid grew up in the middle of San Francisco to the most Hippy parents you could have, but he is the glowing image of disenfranchisement if you look at him now, or if you had glanced at him any time in the past 10-or-so years. It's an odd experience.
