(2,056 posts)Because they are such "purists" and all and want Trump to win to "punish" everyone who didn't give them what they wanted. To hell with the environment and equality and everything good about America. Those that are cheering for Trump to win are the most vile, disgusting of all depolorables. Why? Because they are going against virtually everything they believe out of SPITE and that makes them ugly and evil.
