I'm glad you agree that Trump is sexist and xenophobic (and for the record Bill Clinton's actions in the WH were disgusting). As to him making fun of the disabled see
here. As to Trump's racism...well no, he obviously hasn't burned a cross and worn a white hood. But here's what he's done along those lines:
--he has called all Mexicans rapists
--he's referred to black people in Baltimore as Thugs
--he's appointed Jeff Sessions, who was denied a Federal Judge position due to comments such as calling a white civil rights lawyer a "race traitor" and making sympathetic jokes about the KKK
--he's appointed Steve Bannon, who has claimed Briebart was the platform of the alt-right
--he's claimed a judge was biased due to being "Mexican"
--he's attacked the Muslim parents of US Army officer who was KIA
--he's been sued by the Justice Department for not renting to black people
--he said that quotes attributed to him--that black people were inherently lazy, that black people shouldn't be counting his Casino money--were "probably true"
--he questioned whether Obama was an American
--he said of the Pequots, that they "don't look like Indians to me..."
--he condoned the beating of a BLM supporter, saying "Maybe [the protester] should have been roughed up"
--when two men were convicted of beating up a homeless Latino and citing Trump as their inspiration, Trump said in response to these attacks, “I will say that people who are following me are very passionate...They love this country and they want this country to be great again. They are passionate.”
And on and on and on. I'm no longer going to impute any negative characteristics on you...I'll let you make the call on the above.
In my view there's a big difference between saying something like "I've no use for Hilary Clinton" or "I dislike Obama"...those are valid opinions. I have real trouble with folks making comparisons, as you did, about the "better of two evils". The problem is that things like racism, sexism, xenophobia are
not political issues (despite the alt-right trying to make it so), they are things all functioning members of society should fight against. But when one throws their support behind Trump or makes comparisons between Trump and others, as you did, it indicates that one's standards of comparison--Trump's record of racism, sexism, xenophobia, mocking the disabled--is the measure through which one judges others as inferior. That's a weird way to move through life since the standards are at the very bottom of the barrel. One can only go up in standards of decency, not down. So such comparisons are going to generate a huge burden on the shoulder's of Trump supporters in terms of being judged as championing those bottom-of-the-barrel standards; after all, they are throwing their weight behind a candidate who's horrific track-record regarding basic human values and constructive interactions is morally indefensible.
