I've seen friends/family support everyone from Carson to Cruz to Rubio to Kasich in this race, but I haven't seen a single post in support of Trump from anyone I know. It's almost eerie. But I consider it a very good thing.

Cuckoo Pants Trump voters: Lower to middle class whites of none-to-modest education (I've offended a number of them by joking, "You don't really think he's building a wall. That's a story for the suckers." These people really believe the wall's coming, and that Mexicans are pouring into the country.) Military nuts (they don't seem to grasp he's the isolationist candidate). Old People ("I hate everything progressive! There's a war on Xmas!") Racists (need no description). Anarchists ("Burn it all down!")

You left out people who hate government and feel like a "successful businessman" is the answer.

I have one friend who supports Trump (but is actually willing to engage in rational conversation about political issues), and two relatives (who are nitwits and racists). That's all that I know of.

Roughly the same here. Except more knuckle-headed relatives.
