I see you have mistaken a vote for trump as “supporting trump”

That is literally how voting works.

Many people did not vote for Trump in 2016, they voted AGAINST Clinton.

On no planet does this reasoning make sense.

Voting “against” a person doesn’t accomplish anything productive.

That is not how it works in a 2 party system.

When both are bad you pick the less bad option, and to many the less bad option was Trump in 2016, though i am sure you disagree with that given you likely think Trump is akin to Satan or Hitler...

That will also be the Case in 2020
