If I had to put a word to it...

I'd say the Dems are incredulous. But maybe I'm just projecting.

Something I genuinely don't understand, though, is how anyone could think that saying "Well *of course* the neo-nazis are rallying around Trump!" is in any way a meaningful explanation of why we should give Trump a pass on charges of racism.
