He may be a loathsome cretin but he’s their loathsome cretin

Do you have any Trump voting friends? They know what he is. And apparently they don’t care. What does that say about them?
Most of these hard fought elections really do come down to tribalism. I had a relative tell me once that asking her to vote for a Democrat would be like rubbing the cat’s fur backwards. And I get that. It’s uncomfortable to even consider voting for a member of the other team.
But this is Trump. He’s not normal. There’s never been anyone like him and he’s simply unfit for the presidency in every way and most of them know it. As a citizen you have a responsibility to look beyond this tribalism when Hitler’s on the ballot and recognize that something more important is at stake. And these Republican voters aren’t doing it. It’s telling.
