Truly, this man is a jerk. But a jerk perfectly adapted to his very specific time and place, an Eisenhower-Generation or early-Boomer white Christian Midwestern male who prospered because the post-war American government ran an economy designed to reward straight white men who would marry, breed large families, and work to support the economy that supported those families.
