I know you want to (and need to, cuz no way would you ever support systemic racism [eventho you inarguably do by voting/claiming Republican]) believe this, but the evidence simply doesn't support it at all. Last time I checked Trump's approval with Rs was still higher than 80%. At this point anyone still approving of or supporting Trump is objectively enabling, emboldening, and complicit in this wave of rising Nazism/fascism in America. In a moral country/party, his approval rating shouldn't be above 80% if you cut out a subsection of "people directly related to Donald Trump".
This isn't a tiny minority or fringe group, it is literally the base of the party. The line has been drawn pretty clearly - if you want to continue to identify as Republican that's fine, but you are advancing this neoNazi movement and racism by doing so. Period.
