I don't care if it's 1% of the population. To put into perspective for you, lets just change some terms and people.

If Trump had a speech with that kind of backdrop, with military in the back ground, and then called LGBTQ people the greatest threat to democracy ever, how do you think people would react? Or just black people? Or Mexicans? Or just bull dyke lesbians. The media and the left would go ape shit. They would start impeachments, there would be death threats on twitter, all for speaking about a small minority of people.

Now I don't give a fuck if you like Trumpers or not, but they are Americans and they belong in the discourse whether you like it or not. They have shown to be a force that better be paid attention to. Not demonized, but their concerns heard.
