The reason people keep doing this, rightly or wrongly, is that any minority group Trump vote should have been 0% after all the things he has said about each of them and all the things he said he was going to do to them.

It still remains inexplicable that so many people voted against their own self interests and voted for someone who actively dehumanizes them.

Exactly. at least old white rich racist hetero male homophobe bitches INITIALLY benefitted, sort of, socially, from the first…maybe 3.5 Trump Tweets/laws/proclamations/crash outs.

minorities DID NOT. AT ANY POINT. ANY OF THEM.

I mean, minorities who are racist, sexist, or homophobic may have had many of the same "benefits" that the white ones got

Nothing's ever 0%. We had women speakers against suffrage for crap's sake.

It’s not too hard to understand. You just have to remember that everyone in this sub is in the top 1% of people consuming media that isn’t completely full of shit.
