No, I am not a Trump supporter. Nor even a presidency supporter. I don't "need" a president. I don't want a president. And- funny thing- I am old enough to have noticed presidents don't actually affect me in any way. No matter who they are.
But, I'm still enjoying watching Trump's campaign.
One of the most fascinating things about Trump's candidacy is how it is bringing out the absolute worst in those who oppose him.
With their behavior they are doing more to advance his campaign than his supporters could ever hope to do without their help.
Basically they are making his point for him- whatever it is his supporters believe his point to be.
This illustrates why you'll never see me out protesting "government"; screaming and waving a sign in the face of pro-government extremists. Don't give your enemy legitimacy. Don't give him something to point at and convince his supporters to fear- something he can promise to protect them from.
