Yes...I am concerned about calling all Trump supporters dumb because it is counter productive to getting them to change their position. The goal is not to abuse those that hold different positions but to move towards discussion and a common understanding. If Trumpers feel teased and belittled they will be less likely to feel welcome in the other camp.

It's not complicated.
