I think that's a good question. Humans are excellent at subconsciously using any kind of rationalization to justify their decisions (which I think are also much more driven out of the subconscious than we'd like).
I read a number of articles talking to women that believed the sexual assault accusations against Trump were true and still voted for him. Their reasons involved a lot of tu quoque and believing outright falsehoods about Clinton.
But just because one isn't racist, sexist, homophobic doesn't absolve one of the responsibility from the consequences of voting for one.
