You were right in the past. The people who want to “drink libtard tears” are a small minority, a mirror image of people on the left who want to throw Republicans into re-education camps.

It’s curious how many conclusions people draw from a binary choice on a ballot.

Except that is a false equivalency, every Republican voter backed a candidate who ran on that platform and policy.

Yes, there will always be a few people at the extremes of any movement. It is very different when they control the movement.

They may have seen it as the "least-bad" option rather than actively wanting what Trump was offering, but honestly that distinction doesn't matter if they are willing to support that level of harm. You don't get to vote for Trump and claim you aren't in that group. If you enabled him, you own his policy.

> re-education camps

Aka schools? Honestly, what do you do with people making $40k / year who think they’re going to be affected by tax on earnings over $400k, going to pay tax on the sale of their primary residence, and going to be affected by the estate tax?

There are a lot of people that can’t seem to figure out they aren’t rich and are never going to be.

Republicans just elected a congressman who addressed the world after the election by saying "Cry more, lib." [1] I question whether Democrats elected anyone advocating sending Republicans to reeducation camps.
