Election Day and Results

[amlove21]

Like I said above earlier.

C'mon dude. That comment right there smacks of elitism and ghost guessing. Don't give me that garbage that Rasmussen or anyone else knows for sure who pulled the handle on the ballot machines and for whom. Yesterday already proved that polls are bull shit - exit or otherwise. So, I suppose if you have to blame the "Working Class" well then, I doubt any one of them will have a problem with that.

I have no fucking clue what you're on about. I am not placing blame on anyone, but certainly not the demographic that I am a part of.

I did lol at the elitism comment though. It's like they give you guys all the same pamphlet.

"When challenged, win or lose, be sure immediately revert to these stock expressions, regardless of the actual substance of the argument. Remember, if people disagree with you, they're liberals! And that's BAD! Be sure to compare them to a college student and ignore the subject, even if it makes you look stupid!"

Might be time for a wall...

Canadians pledge their own wall to block Trump-fleeing US liberals

The Commonwealth must be defended. I have already decided only hockey loving refugees will be allowed entry. They will have to pass an advanced hockey knowledge test to prove their worth.

Hey bro, you can't do that. You just a-salted me.

GET IT

Look if it means anything I still believe your hair won this election.

Look if it means anything I still believe your hair won this election.

I don't think that was ever in question, honestly. Even if we completely discount the hair polling (which, until this point everyone agreed were valuable and generally trustworthy), my hair still won in a landslide.

It's so good I even have a hair apparent with his own bodacious quaff.

Hurry up and busy leaving

While many conservative Americans are silently enjoying their victory others have taken the opportunity to remind these celebrities of their promise to flee the country. Martin Shkreli, ex-pharmaceutical executive and internet celebrity, has offered to provide airfare for any celebrity that threatened to leave.

The POTUS elect has spent plenty to make the comb over stay in place no matter what. He is one of the few candidates to wear any kind of head cover while on a podium. Trump has serious, I mean PJ/SEAL level concerns for his hair.

The national infrastructure budget is going to be spent on keeping that mane in place

Hence the need for a Canadian wall.

You have no excuse now. Whatever happens going forward is on your choices. Good,bad, or otherwise. There is no obstacle to the Great America you have been promised.

I hope that everything goes well for all our sake. I will continue to respect the office of the presidency, and our elected officials.

If President-elect Trump turns out to be a con-man, you people who voted for him have only yourselves to blame.

I don't recall ever saying I voted for him. I'm simply referring to the fact that Republicans now control Congress and the White House.

YOU'D THINK I LIKE HIM MORE RIGHT!?

I want to put this out there while we have a moment where people aren't screaming at their keyboards and typing with fists- Mr. Trump is the future POTUS. I don't care about the dude, and I would prefer someone else in that seat, but I respect the living fuck out of that office and I'll be just as good an NCO for President Trump as I was for Obama and Bush.

That was more of a "you" as in general. I probably should have been clearer. If you didn't vote for him great!

Okay so I think something that we all can be happy about is that Eric Greitens is now the governor of Missouri.

 

[Salt USMC]

Also, Joe Arpaio was finally unseated as Sheriff of Maricola County. Good riddance!

 

[Etype]

Well.

Intel folks have a lock on the facets of human nature. I learn something new every day.

The APA and it's members are going to be disconcerted, but nothing stays the same.

They have a pretty good lock on what effective manipulation looks like, and how to proliferate a lie.

And now we have protests in Seattle, Berkeley, Chicago, and NYC not organized by the Democrats but by Socialists groups according to CNN's folks on the ground.

They are smashing and burning their bastions, brilliant.

 

[DA SWO]

@ThunderHorse , yeah , what he said.

Trump got smoked in the demo's you'd expect- women and minorities- and did really well w young white uneducated males and old people.

Why does a lack of college make someone uneducated?

 

[amlove21]

Why does a lack of college make someone uneducated?

Because that's what the specific poll we referenced used as a parameter.

Nothing more.

I did not write this but it sums up for all of us who voted against Hillary and that does not mean we voted for Trump. We have been in the shadows for 8 years waiting for our time. Since no one was willing to listen. Working hard everyday. It is a slam against you who blindly support Trump and those who hated him. Take your feminist, environmentalist, racist, and homosexual bull crap and stuff it where the sun don't shine. If you do not rise up and do your part and make us better. YOU ARE TO BLAME. I have stayed out of 99.99% of these threads. Unless it suits my need to add fun. You don't have to love your brother, you just have to listen to him and understand his point of view. I have not seen that lately on this board.

As a deplorable I am a collage educated white male with a BS in PolSci and Culture Anthropology. You are all fucked up as a football bat. Welocome to life as we know it.

The Deplorable's

I voted against Trump, but I am on the Trump train today.

Donald Trump didn't win because "he was a racist who hates minorities". He won because of your arrogance and cultural elitism. You found them to be deplorable. He certainly won some votes on "building a wall" but that didn't carry him to the presidency.

He won because he galvinized rural america. He won because he spoke to the class of people most of you elitists feel are too uncouth to talk to. You mock them in the stores, online - their culture and economic status was witty punchline of a New Yorker joke. This was a cultural battle; your Patagonia jacket versus their carhart jacket.

You called them "working class whites" online because it was slightly more PC than calling them "white trash"; although in social circles you certainly said worse. Even during the election polling it became the norm to say "the non college educated white vote". You didn't build a culture of inclusivity with your elitist groupthink.

You were too busy labelling Donald Trump a racist when Donald Trump was in the trenches of rust belt cities promising to stop trade deals that took jobs out of "fly over states". They never saw economic recovery. The new digital economy was never going to come to them.

You were focused on his declassé political rhetoric when he was confronting automakers for destroying the economic viability of middle America. He offered plain text solutions to a world built around the clouded vision of technicrats.

Don't sit here and lecture us how this was win for racism. It was your own hubris and disdain for plebians that was the real monicker of hatred. You can't say you are a tolerant person when you look at whole swaths of the country like they're deplorable miscreants.

Go, listen to some of the promises Donald Trump has to offer. It was the same message as Sanders. Go and sit down with working class americans. Turn off the news and listen to your fellow American. The guy who lost his factory job, the restraunt worker who can't afford health insurance, the veteran dealing with the VA.

Listen to them. Own up to your mistakes and move on.

Scorched earth anyone? Looks like the Democrats themselves are "brexiting".

Democratic Party must burn for a new start - CNN.com

The Democratic Party Establishment Is Finished. What a Joke.

Does the Democratic Party Have a Future?

There's no leadership for the Democrat Party right now, Chuck Todd says

Meh, 8 years ago today pundits were saying this about the Republican Party, 4 years ago today Pundits were saying this about the Republican Party.
