70% turned out in Kent, 52% voted for Trump. Associating 36% w/intolerance is akin to grade school name calling & won't work

You're really arguing those 36% who voted for a guy who ran on attacking African Americans, Muslims, Latinos & women are tolerant?

Did Trump not accuse Mexican immigrants of being racists? Does he not believe it okay to grab women by their genitalia?

Perhaps you think you can dissociate Trump from the things Trump said. But he ran on hatred. Those who voted for him voted hate.

You mean anti-undocumented, I think. But that's STILL different from claiming they're rapists.

I contend Russian angles, associating millions as racists,etc only serves to discredit DJT opposition when policy debates arrive

I get that. I get you're also trying to excuse a bunch of people who voted for someone who made generalizations & stoked violence
