I seen some trump supporters interviewed last night about why the voted trump.
A few said the economy/immigration.
A few said freedom.

But what does freedom mean here?

How are they not free now??

I think they mean freedom from immigrants, freedom to say whatever the heck they want with no consequences.

Freedom from reproductive rights,
freedom from living on a planet with a habitable climate,
freedom from being able to vote for a morally sound candidate,
freedom from having to think about the consequences of their actions ...

That kind of thing.

I could honestly weep for humanity this morning.

Trump paints himself as an anti establishment figure. So I think they mean freedom from rules and conventions.

It reminded me of brexit voters saying they voted brexit for sovereignty

Both meaningless bs

Freedom to do whatever the fuck they want to, often involving guns.
