Trump was elected by rural racist whites. The end.

Shocking how they were able to vote him in over another white person but couldn't vote in enough numbers to keep a black person out of the office. Probably a bit more to it than your absurdly simplistic statement.

"Trump voters are not racist because both candidates are white"

"Trump voters are not racist because they could not keep Obama out of office"

Try harder.
 
Actually Trump was voted in by blue collar workers (previously voted Democrat, including Obama) that we're tired of the status quo.

It's really as simple at this. The onus on the Democrat party now is to reverse failing the middle class so badly that they felt their best option was to elect a bigot.

As opposed to your well supported claim that 'huge numbers of rural racist whites voted for him' and that the racists got him elected? Did racists vote for him? Absolutely. Racists vote in all elections. The numbers show that it had to be more than that. So there's the low bar of unsupported claims, insults and derogatory statements and there is the higher bar of constructive discourse and careful consideration. So far you seem to be stuck on a particular rung so it will be interesting to see if you are able to attain a higher one
 
The violence from the 'progressives' is outnumbering that of any Trump people by a huge margin - like a hundred to one.

Could you provide the source for that assertion? I would be interested in reading your source to see how they came up with that 100 to 1 number.
 
Well at least with republicans in control, gun laws will become quite liberal nation wide.
Then every woman, every Muslim, every Hispanic and every Black can carry a pistol and legally blow their assailants head clean off.
I think that will calm things down a bit.....

LOL I know it shouldn't but this made me LOL.

LMAO!!!! They've been able to do this in most states during Obama's Presidency yet we don't see all the violence you hope for. You're showing your true colors, an angry liberal psychopath

Failing the middle class so badly that their wages were going up and unemployment was below 5%. Not hard to figure out what was really going on.

I don't think rural whites is any kind of stretch, and again, if they voted for a racist candidate, a candidate that spent five years suggesting Obama was born in Kenya, what's the distinction?

Breaking news from Blackjack, 59,937,338 Americans are racists.

Yeah, 1 in 5, that's a real stretch.

The funny thing is that an authoritarian like Trump is far more likely to seize guns than Obama ever was.
 
WAMs (white american males) are definitely in for some serious trouble if they continue (or start, depending on your level of disbelief) of grabbing women by the pussy and requesting papers of anybody brown.

edit: so is nextshark.com basically stormfront for non-whites? Inciting racial animosity and the like?
 
Lol, quislings. Yes, anybody who doesn't vote your way is your enemy. More blind ignorance.

Absolutely. That's how the right has acted for the last 8 years, and the sooner the left realizes that and acts accordingly, the sooner they can compete again.

Yep, he thinks that because some African-Americans voted for Trump that they are race traitors. That the color of their skin should control what they think, believe and who they vote for

Actually you're a quisling if you're black and vote for the leader of the plainly racist Obama birthers.

No, the left has pretty much expected minorities and working class to be slaves. The slaves have revolted and the only thing you have in your toolbox is to call them racists and quislings. If that is your last best hope, you're fucked.

You have no pipeline of younger leaders. You have a grip of old hags in the form of Wasserman Schultz, brazile, pelosi, and Warren. You have alienated the Berners with your idiotic cabal of old hags. You have lost many governor seats and state legislatures and both chambers of Congress. You have lost the supreme Court for decades. Your savior hasnt done anything in 8 years and is leaving in disgrace with no hope and no change. You bet everything on another old hag, and you came up with the wrong color. You were, are, and will continue to be arrogant in your haughty stupidity and blind ignorance to your plight.

You. Are. Fucked.

And the best you can do is *isms, *ists, and quislings.

Thanks for proving how fucked you are and how you got there.

Checkmate.

I agree with everything except the Checkmate.

Hildabeast didn't connect with Millennials and that was the problem partly. They are the future and they go left more than right 2/3rd of the time. The Baby Boomers are starting to be part of the past.

There's no overnight fix and it may well take 8 years but as long as the DNC hitches its wagon to millenials and not clintons again.. the sun will shine eventually.

In the short time yes we are fucked.
 
sigh. the most enlightening thing about all this is that these people didn't just magically become racists overnight - it was clearly just hiding in plain sight.

This happened to an acquaintance of mine...in NYC...

this morning as I was standing in line to buy a bottle of water for the plane ride, a man wearing a Trump hat said, "go home, beloved patriot. you're no longer welcome here."

She's of Japanese ancestry, born in Hawaii....

Ohh bullshit. These stories are so laughably ridiculous.
 
So we have LK saying it's all a conspiracy to attack the white man. Guess we got our own flagrant McDuke.
