There's also a lot of them who aren't idiots but are just bad people. They knew exactly what Trump was selling and they liked it. They want theirs and want him to hurt others since they see the world as zero sum.
Calling them idiots is too big of a complement and takes away their agency.
Oh, absolutely. I tried to make sure that was included with "plus bigotry," but you're right. I hate taking away people's agency, and I apologize for having appeared to do so.
