people labeled crazy because they have PTSD, Bipolar disorder, depression? Like those people? Why throw trumps supporters in a basket with them- unless you think the stink from them is going to rub off on his supporters? Ableism is bigotry based on the assumption that it is a terrible thing to be "crazy" in the commonly used sense of having a mental illness.

Trump's supporters are the bigots. Joining them with ableist crap is not helpful.
