For the record, i don't vote. And even if i did i don't see myself voting for either.
Point out a single Clinton supporter among my friends who supports any one of those things and I will defriend them right now. Also please point out where a vote for Clinton means you support any of that. I know quite a few Clinton supporters and not a single one of them stands for any of that.
Meanwhile, I have known quite a few Trump supporters who have voted for him for more vile reasons. I never was friends with them in the first place because they thought those things before Trump was running, so I never had to think about defriending them. Keep in mind that I also said before that I didn't consider a vote for Trump to necessarily be in line with this; I just happen to personally know people who use this reasoning.
Pay attention to the people who are saying that it's about the justification for the vote that defines this boundary and not the vote itself.
