Ah, well, parent post said "So you want to "flush out" about 50% of the American electorate? "
I thought that meant parent was saying about 50% of the electorate voted for Trump but I could have misinterpreted.
OK yeah that's a good point. I was wrong.
#2 is claiming that in the phrase "the only people who were really invested in keeping confederate statues in place are hiding some deeply distasteful views and should be flushed out" should be flushed out applies to views and not people. I am not a native English speaker but it does not appear a fact, much less a straightforward one. In the pattern "X is Y and should be Z" Z applies to X and not Y in my understanding.
