    Well, this is just anecdotal, but my family members all voted for him because we had a hard R in the Whitehouse for 8 years and they were pissed about that.

      Took me way too long to figure out ehat you meant there with the hard r, and thats wild. Unfortunately, and I dont mean this directly for your family, but I have a strong feeling racism has to just die off. I’m not convinced its possible to fix someone’s ideas about that after say 30 years of it or whatever.

      I have to ask though, do they just hate all Democrats, and being black was the easiest thing to target? Or maybe they see the party as intertwined with minorities.

        They’re stereotypically Republican: old, white, fearful of anybody with melanin and blame the left for everything. They’ll say “we hated Obama for eight long years” and when you ask why? What did he do that you hated so much? “We’re not racists!!!1!” Like, ok? That’s not an answer.
