Since when people cannot chose their favorite candidate without being ostracised?

Since demonizing Trump tested as the best way to distract people from Hillary's record?
I think the issue that people have with Thiel supporting Trump is that if America needs an anti-establishment president to "shake up the system" that is not Clinton/Romney/Ryan/etc, then it's hard to believe that Trump--with all his flaws--is the best choice. You're telling me there is no one better that Thiel can throw his support and money towards? I find that hard to believe.

I guess some people just like to watch the world burn.

They're free to choose whoever they like. Others are free to criticize that choice. Especially when that choice is The Donald.
Criticize != Ostracize

It's possible to criticize someone without wanting him to be bared from participating in society.
