A new survey from Pew Research Center finds that Hillary Clinton’s supporters, and in particular white Clinton supporters, are much less respectful of Donald Trump’s supporters than Trump supporters are of them.

According to Pew, 58 percent of Clinton supporters say they have a “hard time” respecting Trump supporters, while 40 percent say they have no trouble doing so.

Yup.  They believe that being leftist absolves them of being racist and bigoted.  Objective observers realize that not only does it not absolve them, it inclines them toward racism and bigotry.

2) It's none of your business.
3) Leave me alone!
