    There is a quote I think about alot. I’m not sure where I first heard it. I’ll try to repeat it from memory.

    We have a term for the people who joined the Nazi party but didn’t really hate the Jews or believe in the cause. The people who joined because they wanted to keep their job, get promoted, maintain their friends or social standing, or other reasons along those lines.

    We call those people “Nazis”. No one cares why you became a Nazi, we don’t want to hear the excuse. You were a Nazi, we call you a Nazi.

    The point I’m making is simple. Maybe they did vote for Trump because the legitimately thought groceries would be cheaper. Cool… You still voted for the bad person who does bad things hoping that would make things more convenient for you. Maybe it will, maybe it won’t. It doesn’t matter. My opinion of you remains the same regardless of your reasons.i don’t care why.
