60% of Republicans would still vote for Trump if he were convicted of crimes charged.

It's not about who is a good guy or a bad guy. The reason to vote for him (or the next-worst thing) is because he enables racism and other forms of bigotry. People are going to stop hating Jewish people, LGBTQ people, Black people, Asian people, or Hispanic people just because their champion has an affair or commits treason.

While I agree with most of your post, the inclusion of Jewish people seems very inaccurate given the insane amount of antisemitism that permeates the "progressive" left these days.

I am seeing a ton of people on the left parrot phrases like "From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free", supporting Hamas, calling every Israeli citizen including babies "colonizers and settlers", and saying anybody who believes Israel has a right to exist "genocidal".

While it's true that the actual candidate representing the party, Joe Biden, has been pretty supportive or neutral on Israel, there's definitely a very vocal and online-present section of the left that is antisemitic.

I say this as someone that generally supports the Palestinian cause and detests much of what the IDF has done. I think Netanyahu is a clown, and I know many Israelis think the same. But there is definitely a line that is crossed on the left right now where it becomes antisemitism under the supposed guise of just "anti-Zionism".
