No. You are wrong to let them have this spin.
We Trump supporters don't go around with a mark on our foreheads indicating whether or not we are part of the "50%" they are referring to. So ALL Trump supporters are suspect. That was the intent of the HRC campaign. They are using weasel words when they try and say they only meant "half" of us.
Also, do you really think 50% of Trump supporters are racist, sexist, etc.? 10% 5%? Less than one percent?
Whatever the percentage is, we are probably outnumbered by by intolerant bigots on the other side of the political fence.
sheesh. Try to follow. Let’s say half the nation supports Trump, and half of Trump supporters are deplorable. That would be one fourth of the nation deplorable. I bet you struggled with story problems.
