How the f*ck is this race tied!?
Do you remember growing up and asking "how was it even possible that someone as monstrous as Hitler was put in power? He wasn't shy about his intents!"?
A lot of people are more interested in hating people that are different from them than making informed decisions.
Sadly I truly believe this is the case. There's no reason to support Trump positions unless you're a billionaire. Any non-billionaire that supports his obvious lies and grifts must be a racist, because he doesn't have anything else going on.
Decades of unfiltered right wing radio declaring Democrats as literally evil and propogating the idea of Republicans being the party of God. When your rival is the embodiment of evil you cannot ever work with them or compromise with them lest you be destroyed.
The correct question others should have posited when the idea of race was created by white supremacists.
