Your thoughts on the protests

[abaris]

Saying everyone who voted for Trump is a racist bigot is just stupid.

If racism and bigotry plays a large role in any candidate's or party's narrative, the ones voting for them are at least comfortable with that part of the package. I wouldn't know what else to say about people who heard his comments on Mexicans and muslims, his constant mockery of certain people, such as the disabled journalist he parroted in one of his speeches.

It's abundantly clear what this person represents, what he plans to do to minorities, how he thinks about women. So, yes. I can't help feeling contempt for everyone having heard all of this, witnessed all of this and still voted for that man. At the very least they don't mind and that's the most benign explanation I can come up with.
