Rep. John Lewis vs. PEOTUS Don Trump

[werepossum]

I would buy your argument if Trump somehow achieved some seismic shift in white voters. He didn'r

He managed to flip a miniscule tens of thousands but nonetheless critical voters because his opponent was tone deaf to their economic anxieties

Good point. Trump also made increases among blacks and Hispanics.

Of course. He's the greatest con man this country has ever produced.

He pulled +14% on non-college whites. I'm sure such stark facts will make you reconsider that position.

Trump/Clinton's minority numbers were in line with history. Obama's 2012 performance was particularly impressive; even 2008 not so much. This post is meant more as an illustrative example of how little facts matter here.

As reported by CNBC-According to 2015 data from the Census Bureau, Georgia's 5th Congressional District—which is majority African-American political leadership and includes most of Atlanta—as a poverty rate of more than 17 percent, above the national average of 13.5 percent. As indicated previously..Lewis has zero leadership skills and is largely propped up by the Praetorian Guard Liberal Media.

first you say that his district is "a violent crime three ring circus" and then provide stats for poverty.

i know how racist are you, i guess you are equally ignorant.

It changes my quantification of the shift but not the dynamic driving it.

That was meant to be sarcastic, and evidently correct.
