Trump's army of 'the uncovered'
By Lynne Lechter

A funny thing happened on the way to the 2016 presidential election.  The unelectable, uncouth, unintelligent, unpolitical, unlikeable, and utterly unthinkable guy won.  Clearly, the "deplorables" assisted, as did the "bitter clingers" — owners of guns and Bibles — and the so-called uneducated, unsophisticated, and ridiculed patriotic swath of the American people. 

But it took more.  The uncovereds carried President Trump over the finish line to unbelievable victory. 

Who and what are the uncovereds?  They are the silent army who are passionately pro-Trump but wouldn't and still won't admit it.  Why? one might ask.  Were they cowards?

In the months leading up to the 2016 election, the reasons for secrecy were very different from and far more benign than those dictating secrecy today.  In 2015, Trump's inner circle was aware of the phenomenon, as were the ancillary Trump campaign volunteers who walked the streets, knocking on doors, and toiling for hours at phone banks.

The phenomenon described is quite real.    The Dems and the rest of the mainstream culture tries to shame Trump supporters as deplorable and worse,  and many simply don't want the hassle.    A neighbor of mine put up Trump yard signs, which were repeatedly stolen or torn down.    He finally nailed the sign 12 feet up in a tree.   But that sort of devotion in the face of the howling wind of the kulture-apparatchiks is rare.

Who wants to get their house vandalized for a yard sign, or their car keyed for a bumper sticker?  Back in Phoenix I saw almost every Trump sign slashed or spray-painted.  People who do that are not far from setting your house on fire with you in it.  It's best to just shut up and keep the secret inside the voting booth.  And lie to pollsters like a rug (which I already had good practice at from years prior.  I hate polls).

I guess I'm a coward.
