It's a statement of resolve.
We "don't care" what evil you try to do to us. We will not be afraid and we will fight. We are "still voting Trump" come November.
It means what people think it means and what it can mean is 'I don't care how horrible he is', which makes it a bad slogan. That's exactly along the lines of their propaganda; we irrationally support him against all this evidence of whatever.
Correct me if the way I word this is wrong, but I'm going to try and phrase your comment into an argument.
-"Don't care, still voting Trump" can be construded to sound like "Don't care how horrible he is, I'm still voting" Trump which implies a blind obedience.
-Because the left's propaganda states we're blindly following Trump, this slogan could be construded to give credibility to their false claims.
-We would reasonably want to avoid giving credibility to these false claims and should therefore avoid saying "Don't care, still voting Trump".
Does this sound like a fair construction into an argument of what you were saying? I want to make sure I understand you correctly.
Yes. It's important to make political messages clear and difficult to (wilfully) misconstrue, because that's what the opposition will do. And since this has already been their meme since before the election we're not even making them work.
I don't like that slogan. 'Still voting', what does that mean? There's no reason to not vote Trump and a thousand to not vote the Democrats.

By "still voting" we mean we cannot be intimated.
