I know personally 3 people, 2 from work, one neighbor closely. Reasonable, pro equality in all fronts and not MAGA. We still don't agree on abortion (none of them want to ban abortion), guns (none think we should hand AR15s to anyone), how big the government should be. They don't like Trump, but don't want democrats. The "ALL republicans are racist/sexist" is absurd and that's what my last comments are about. While people on both sides demonize and make assumptions on the other side, this divide will keep getting bigger.

And yet they voted for Trump because...?

And you honestly believe their vote for the openly racist queerphobe doesn't make them racist/queerphobic?

If you voted for Hitler in WWII Germany, you don't get out of the negative labels that come with that decision because you "don't like the other party."
