Easy answer, because the White Republican conservatives have Republican law makers who trick their supporters into thinking they're helping them by using false narratives such as going after brown skinned people and blaming them.. meanwhile, they cut taxes for the rich and give themselves a bonus while they cut social programs that benefit the people including their supporters. For example, when the Republicans passed their tax plan, their supporters swore they were going to get a lot of money on their tax refunds.. that was FALSE, everybody actually got 17% less tax refunds than normal this year.. when brought up, the Republicans claimed it was YOUR fault you got less tax refunds.
So why are they angry? Because they were tricked and fooled by their OWN party, the Republicans who are smart enough to know these people are very gullible and easy to manipulate and lie to.. they then point the finger and blame to someone else for their suffering and poverty. The Trump China trade war resulted in thousands of job loses and Farmers nearly going bankrupt.. as a result, Trump bailed them out using $16 billion of our tax dollars. Yet, they still do not want to blame Trump for it, no matter what, instead they blame other people such as Obama for what happened when clearly it was the result of Trump's China tariffs.
It's a cycle of Republicans scamming their voters out of their money and then their voters end up blaming others for their suffering. It goes on and on.

White Republicans angry!? I guess this is about me, my old school beliefs and standards for decency being abridged today by extremists filled with hate, fear and bigotries galore. all of it embodied in the present day Republican Party led by the worst of them all . . . his highness Trump! And I ask, "Can the Country Survive?" this bombast of war mongering on the traditional values I was raised in and served the country for. It's a different USA now, one that the rest of the world miseries us over, us losing our world leadership and moral standing position, dropping out of trade and security agreements, belittling our neighbors and other government leaders, playing nice footsie with the ugliness of Russia and North Korea, and forgetting all about nature of immigration, fairness, freedom and equality. We have become an ugly fear based nation that no one likes except the extreme rightist Republicans. God help us!?

The median wage for white men has not increased since the 1960s but the median wage for women and minorities have seen significant increases. Reagan promised supply side economic policies of cutting taxes on the rich would fix the economy and return to the time when everyone would get wages increases but it did not help them. Now most families need two workers to maintain a middle class life style which undermines their traditional role of head of their family.
