But your good with that, because they have a "d" at the end of their name....
Criticizing Trump doesn't make someone a Democrat, nor someone who votes for a Democrat.

Everything isn't 'Us vs. Them'.

In most cases — for most people, no one is as bad as the worst thing they have done. Unless they are a psychopath, they tend to take a step back. They have a conscience or a level of morality that pulls them back once they reflect. Think about your own experience— there is probably something said or done that you regret and you would not repeat it. It is not part of your core and you strive to be better than that. Trump has no such mechanism— he is without any moral anchor. I fully believe we have not yet seen his worst and most destructive acts. Twenty years in prison work makes me think he is a serious risk and possibly a psychopath. Some GOP Senators have recently expressed thoughts that Trump would learn a lesson from the impeachment trial experience. Evidence shows that he has but not the one they hoped for. Trump really is that bad, likely even worse than he has been until now.

They should have dismissed that nonsense without a hearing or anything.

Things are going very well right now in this country, I am first to admit. I don't know how much of it is Trump or not. Knowing how things are now with the "alternate facts" and difficulty knowing the truth I try to focus on things I truly believe and are not spin. I had a pretty misspent childhood and knew some pretty unsavory characters only getting away by joining the Marine Corps. I just retired after 30 years in healthcare. I believe I have met all kinds of people. I remember probably middle school kids making fun of other kids for thick glasses or being fat or something, but since high school I have not seen or heard of an adult making fun of another humans physical traits. But I do know Trump does a good Parkinson's impression. I could go into character traits that act alone implies, but we really must ask ourselves if a great economy is worth it? There are literally thousands of other bits of evidence Trump is a miserable human, but I think this one is the most indicative of psychological issues.

T has no ability to self reflect. It's all "out there."

Honestly if it comes to him vs Bernie I have been thinking about possibly voting for him, though I’ve voted democrat in the past four presidential elections. As repulsive as I find Trump I’m even more disgusted by Sanders’ policies. I don’t think Venezuela is a good model. I don’t think jacking up taxes for the middle class is a winning policy. And I CERTAINLY don’t have very nice thoughts about Sanders supporters. I have never seen so much ugliness and contempt in my life.

I suspect that some of what you are seeing that is attributed to Sanders supporters is originating with Russian trolls (as well as some anti-Bernie stuff.) The notion that poor Bernie is at the mercy of party meanies is a little overblown.
