Trump was elected by right-wing white people .. and that's the good news.

The left is on the outside looking in.
Trump isn't far right either -he's difficult to pigeonhole -he's certainly less of a neo-con then Hillary by the looks of it..

But he's not this identity driven politics of the new left either; if he does start an alt-right agenda,
i'll be the first to say I was wrong to support him.

But I don't see that happening. I think Trump actually wants to improve inner city black lives too..he's clumsy with his speech though.
All of which is speculation -we just have to wait and see how it goes.

They don't have to listen to the people who put Trump in office. A lot of them won't vote for Trump next time regardless - and they weren't a majority anyway.

Democrats have to focus more on the people who sat this one out.

It must have dawned on you by now that the majority does NOT rule in a democratic republic....that even the minority in this country has a voice and that just ain't gonna change.

But Obamism failed them. Why do you think they sat it out? Obama is more popular than his policies; Hillary was going to continue them but Hillary is no Obama in terms of likability---and it didn't help matters she is white.

So much for our post-racial society.

When a majority of voters think the country is going in the wrong direction isn't a good time to be a status quo candidate.

Not difficult to pigeonhole. A pathological lying, self-aggrandizing, clueless snake oil salesman. That was obvious from day 1.
 
Trump did better with black voters than any GOPer since Nixon. Better with Hispanics and women than Romney.

So go cry somewhere else. Your butthurt has no bounds.

I'm not a racist now .. I fight against it.

Trump put a neo-nazi in the White House .. and you're questioning if I'M a racist?

Trump is the champion of every racist group in America .. and you're wondering if I'M a racist?

What happened to your own sense of honesty?

Lemme see here......
2008 Obama is elected and since the Democrats have lost 69 House seats, 13 Senate seats, 910 state legislative seats, 30 state legislative chambers and 11 governorship's. They have become a regional party and not a national party.
How does one see them turning this trend around?

Trump got exactly what I said he would of the black vote .. 8% .. you lying stank bitch.

Reagan and Dole got 12% of the black vote in 1980, and the republican percentage of the black vote since 1968 has largely been in the 10 to 15 percent range among African Americans .. you ignorant lying motherfucker.

I think Skidmark is hinting that now the GOP has to do something that they haven't done in 8 years. Actually govern. If they perform like they did under W the Dems shouldn't be in the weeds to long.

My gravest concern with Republicans in control of the government is that we will be attacked by Russia and the Republicans will respond by invading Canada.

Racist? I invite anybody to go to Mexico with no papers. You will be arrested, do HARD TIME and deported. Are they racist? Where is the outrage there?

You notice not a single leftist celebrity threatened to go to Mexico if Trump got elected?

Guess they'd rather be around white folk in Canada lol.

Well, we all have opinions that should be carefully thought out....and I owe you an apology for using the word 'racist' in your case...that was me not thinking carefully....
Neo-Nazi is a strong accusation and shouldn't be thrown around lightly either....
In my experience, its usually people obsessed with race that call everyone that doesn't agree with them on issues, racists....

but its obvious that they are here, they are all colors, both rich and poor....
To think that is not true, might just be a touch of "Cognitive Dissonance"......:)

You have my apology and I'd rather not discuss such a volatile subject anyway.....there are never any winners in that kind of debate.
