My youngest adult son served in Afghanistan, and is voting for Trump.

Does EVERYONE who votes for Trump have a "dark heart"?  If you think that, is your heart darkened by being over-politicized?

Yes and no.

A vote for Trump transcends politics because it makes you an apologist for racism, bigotry, and prideful ignorance.

I don't agree; there are two less than appetizing choices this year.  People are doing the best they can with what they have to work with.  But if what you say is true, a vote for Clinton transcends politics because it makes you an apologist for dishonest in high office and intimidating victims of domestic violence/sexual assault into silence.  I would also argue that my case is clearer than your case.

Trump is the only presidential candidate in any party this year who

1. Has been accused of rape, from his ex wife, a woman who said she was 13 at the time and kept quiet due to threats, and a third woman.

2. Whose attorney's defense was literally "You cannot rape your spouse."

3. Whose response to rape in the military (most victims are men, btw) is "What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together?"

4. Has actually campaigned on racism, bigotry and prideful ignorance.
