and there's a difference.
We have to stop thinking these people didn't know what they were doing. They did. They even know of the Russian collusion. They just don't *care* because they have been treating *us* like the enemy while we've been treating them like our rival.
Some of my Trump Chumps even go so far as to say that Russia did us a favor.
They think "generational welfare" is a big problem facing us today. Really, they just like judging people.
We *must* tether that chicken around their necks, or this shit will keep happening.

In other words: "Even if it isn't your intent to further the cause of racism, by electing Herr Trump you certainly did so. Therefore, your claim that you aren't racist is now moot."
