Right, but I would argue Trump voters by default aren't "intolerant".

I almost want to know how people supporting a someone who's been openly demonizing minorities and immigrants and praising white supremacist groups, aren't "intolerant by default".

He doesn't praise white supremacist groups... the "good people on both sides" line was taken out of context, doesn't take much effort to see the full clip with context. The issue with a lot of the left is they view Trump and his supporters as Nazis, and cannot put themselves in the perspective of a Trump voter. Y'all lack the understanding of why he won the popular vote. Why can't we discuss politics in good faith?

Trump, like most leaning libright, have no issue with "immigrants". We have an issue with "illegal immigrants". You are being intentionally obtuse and using bad faith when you phrase things this way. If you don't enforce border laws, then there is no border. Arresting someone for breaking the law isn't evil, nor is it intolerant. Do you have an issue with Japan's immigration system? It's way more strict and "intolerant" than America's.

ah, so that's why he throws racist insults left and right, makes sense. that changes everything.

yes, because legality automatically implies morality, and the law is always tolerant - something that's been true through the entirety of America's history.

Do you have an issue with Japan's immigration system?

yes I do, but we were talking about the USA here, so this is whataboutism in its purest form.
