Anytime the answer is state choice it means trump is running a bad position at least for the stuff I ' ve been mentioning Some States have proven to be wrong again and again . Guess how they voted in the election . When states are failing to allow vital medical service planned parenthood that ' s when the federal government should step in . Or when some states have denied tax benefits because of the gender of your spouse , that ' s when the federal govt comes in and says you can ' t do that . Moreover , trump has literally , and I cannot stress this enough , literally picked a vp who wants to institute conversion therapy and literally created an AIDS epidemic in Indiana because of his backwards ass views on sexsexuality . And for anti vac , that generally means he spreads misinformation like vaccines cause autism . Which he has said . Multiple times . And if the president is literally gonna spout some bs bro science , a lot of people will believe him because he ' s the president . The same holds true for climate change and his views on that but that ' s unrelated . Also , in terms of pandering to racists , I ' m gonna paraphrase what John Olliver said when trump initially refused to disavow David Dukes vote . Basically , by doing that , you are either a racist , or pretending to be one and at one point it makes no difference . Don ' t act like he didn ' t pander to racists . That doesn ' t mean he is one , or that all his voters are racist , but trump definitely got a ton of racists supporting him extremely vocally and early on and he made sure to keep that base . Anyways , if you want an actual race being judged by trump , he has , in the past , reaffirmed the guild of the Central Park 5 despite dna evidence to the contrary , been successfully sued for removing a black man from his casino for no reason , and forced to pay a settlement for unfair treatment of black tenants . Or you could just understand the colloquial use for racism is not limited to races and generally refers to any kind of ethnic bigotry . But you know , that might be reasonable . Also if you ' re talking about Robert Byrd he hasn ' t been in the klan since the 50 s . The fact that you ' re even parroting that tells me you probably didn ' t know half the stuff you think you do because that is just about the easiest anti Clinton rumor to debunk . But yeah , I ' m sure you ' re much better versed in what trump is about given you literally ignore his actions and straight up quotes . But prior to this year , I never once voted blue . Never . Then I saw what Trump was really about , not what Fox , Breitbart , and pol were trying to project .
