(4,490 posts)They made a stupid, racist, and deplorable choice by supporting someone who wears all of those traits on his sleeves. They do embody at least one of those destructive traits. When it comes down to it, a very large number of people are going to point that out on the internet when you've willingly made such a choice, and there's nothing that can be done about it.
There's also no shortage of people explaning how bad their choice was in a more emotionless analytical manner. Everything is there for them to take part in some introspection next time around. If you want to lead an effort locally to change their minds and realize their mistakes, more power to you, but asking the internet to coddle them in the meantime isn't going to get you anywhere, practically speaking.
