(30,807 posts)I think there were swing voters who went for Trump because they didn't like Clinton; a few were even Dems! You may argue that the fact that they ignored Trump's racism meant that they are racists, but I suspect they were just indifferent to it. We all have our priorities of issues and people often put things low on the list if they don't affect them directly (political selfishness).
But these voters know they made a very big mistake. They may not be announcing it to the world (they are likely embarrassed and ashamed of what they did on that 2016 election day), but they are showing up in the polls.
However, I DO agree that every single person who is STILL a Trump supporter after all the sick, racist actions he has gleefully taken and all the POCs that he has hurt or would like to hurt, IS absolutely a racist.
