Why? Because I don't want to be associated with anyone like that. I've lived in Alabama for 37 years. I already understand them amd I see it as a moral failing in their part. I'm done with them.

Associated with anyone like *what*? The US has a binary political system. If the Democrats are failing to address a topic you care about, the other guys are probably addressing it.

You can't just assume that everyone who voted for Trump did so because of whatever failed morality you're trying to impose upon others. Our candidate was bad, there were plenty of reasons not to trust her to accomplish things. She's had a bad track record with the American public for years, and promising the moon when we could have addressed any of those things in the past four years comes across as empty to people.
