It's the overt cheating and embracing fraudulent medical practices (which suggests additional cheating is happening) that I object to.

While I find voting for Trump to be distasteful and indicative of being at best an idiot, that I can at least understand. But justifying and supporting sell snake oil to desperate people is utterly despicable. Cheating to "win" isn't much better and makes a mockery of the physical struggle that makes sports worthwhile.
