Anyone Voting For Trump Is A Racist, Bigot, Misogynist, And Worse.

You cannot deny it you are just plain Trumpster trash with little redeeming value. Voting for any GOPPER means you support their sick and sadistic agenda no matter what excuse you make. Your soul is infected with sewage.

Is a privileged jerk.

1. As Oprah said, you don't have to like her. You aren't inviting her to your house. You don't have to hang out with her.

2. Whoever the next president is will choose enough supreme court justices to change people's lives for a very long time. If you are willing to chance Trump winning because Hillary wasn't your first choice, you have the privilege to know you will survive that. Not everyone can say that. There are many groups of people whose rights will be destroyed by the court Trump would create. You're a jerk if you're willing to let that happen just because your candidate didn't win the primary. (And I will add that my candidate didn't win the primary, but I have two kids with female reproductive systems, and one LGBT kid, and I can't take chances with their future just because Bernie lost the primary. #I'm with her.)

he and his wife are religiously conservative and Roe v. Wade is their main reason for voting Republican. They don't listen to anything else--it is their one issue. Trump's rhetoric at that debate speaks to people like this.

It doesn't worry me a bit, because they live and vote in safely blue Maryland.

... Trump over Clinton more than any other group! It's a safe bet that their main issue is the nomination of conservative SC justices to overturn Roe v. Wade.

When I read articles that blame white males, less educated people or blue-collar workers, I keep in mind that white Evangelicals are far worse! They're a lower percentage of the voters than "white males," though.

There's several people who seem to have just "one issue" when they vote. I had a couple co-workers in 2000, both of whom seemed reasonable most of the time, that surprised me when they said they were voting for Bush Jr! Their one and only issue? GUNS! They were upset about gun control that was pushed under the Clintons, and they assumed that Gore would continue it. When I brought up several reasons why Bush was a bad idea, it didn't matter. They just brought up guns, guns, guns! Ugh.
