I'm not sure I understand your definition of "WE".
I instantly thought Hill made a mistake with her deplorables remark, but I don't think that means I was "rationalizing". I thought it was a tactical mistake.
Still do. Every election comes down to choosing between lesser evils. In late '17 I did a tour with my aging father with a bunch of old people from all over the country. The tour seemed to be about half Trumpies. Only one, a N Carolina coal industry consultant, was really committed. The others were anybody but Hill type voters.
I still think a general attempt to stereotype all Trump supporters as being racist, or deplorable, is a mistake. Shouting at them from a moral pedestal is not my interest over the next year. Defeating Trump is all I care about. Trying to shame voters into not supporting Trump will not work IMO, and would probably backfire.
