1/? Now is also the time for the left to acknowledge that a lot of the people who voted for Donald Trump are not racist, homophobic bigots.

They’re people left behind by modern society who voted for a guy who strengthened the working class. https://twitter.com/erikaishii/status/1325215744708145152">https://twitter.com/erikaishi...
3/? Before you call me a Trump supporter, I am a registered Libertarian and voted for Biden.

I am an educated person who understands economics, populism, and rural america (i grew up in Iowa)
4) most of these folks are hard working, good natured people who would never mistreat a person of color or transgender individual

But that is how the left and mainstream media portray all Trump supporters.

Uneducated, racist, country bumpkins w/o values or morality.
5) this is simply not the case.

Are there racists and bigots in the Trump supporter base? Absolutely. Are some vocal? Yup.

But that is not representative of the whole.

90% of these folks just want lower taxes, good schools, savings in a bank, and to care for family.
6) so no, as an American citizen that understands and values the democracy we live in, I will NOT systematically cut out Trump supporters unless they spew his vile, hateful rhetoric.

Extend an ear, have a listen. Change hearts with conversation not censorship.
