   Well, seeing as how the Klan almost certainly unanimously voted Trump, it   
   stands to reason that at least some Trump voters are literally Klansmen.   
      
   Of course, it's an argumentative fallacy to berate voters by saying "You voted   
   the same way that the RACISTS voted!"

   Trump supporters aren't the problem. The problem is that things are so fucked   
   up that people were even willing at all to elect a con-artist just to break   
   away from the status quo.
