(14,794 posts)There is no way they did not see the foundation of racism that Trump built his campaign on. They are perfectly fine with it, couldn't wait to vote for him. That makes you a racist. They heard the grab them by the p* comment and said that is the man for me. That makes you a misogynist. He associated with and said he was open to name people to the SC that would vote against equal marriage rights and cheered. That makes you a homophobe.
If they are put off by it, tough fucking shit. Very real people will die because of the policies Trump has openly said he will enact. Those coal miners that voted for Trump, even after he said he will repeal the ACA, are now worried they will lose healthcare coverage, Tough fucking shit. That is perfect example how their hatred of the other outweighed their own interests. They willingly voted for a man that will make many of the people I care about fear for their life. They made their intentions very clear with their vote. They were too busy yelling "jail her" "kill her" "trump that B*" I have no sympathy for them.
I prefer to have sympathy for the victims of a crime, not the perpetrator. I will not forget.
