Are Tump Supporters Any More Redeemable Than Trump Himself? [View all]

Trump supporters act more like a mob than representatives of a party. The snakiness and reaction to Trumps rhetoric at are scary. Trumps code talk about violence against Hillary and even Democratic supporters really goes over the line. And the crowd reaction does not belong anywhere in our politics.

Such open vehement would have totally disqualified candidates in the past forth with. So what are we to do after the election with a Hillary win. The damage and division appears to be permanent, hostile and deep. Is there an redemption under these circumstances

In the end the message seems to be that Trumps supporters will not agree with the results of the election. And if the GOP stays in control of Congress there seems to be no way to move forward on ANYTHING and we face the same stalemate that we have seen the last 7+ years.
