White people don't have a monopoly on trash. Trashy people come in all colours.

We knew a lot of things about Trump before anyone voted for him. He said so many racist and misogynist things before and during his campaign. If someone was able to put those things aside, hold their nose, and vote for him because they thought their individual position would improve even if it meant other people would suffer... then yeah, those people are trash IMO.

Since we are on that topic now, even in Hitler's Germany, there were Jews that supported Hitler prior to the outbreak of WW2. They felt that they were better than Eastern European Jewish immigrants and saw Hitler as a means to stop them, or even remove them. That obviously backfired on them. I have no problem lumping them into the same trash that supported Hitler for whatever reason.
