Well we can finally dispel the fairy tale ideology of "love > hate".
I said damn.Trump actually got 8% more latino votes compared to Romney.

Colin is a fucking tool.
Doesn't Trump still have a rape case in December?
Republican Executive
Republican Legislature
Republican Judicial
The glory days of America begin!
Maybe now he'll finally pivot!
DroppedDoesn't Trump still have a rape case in December?
She didn't mobilize white blue-collar America the way he did. She said there would be new jobs. He promised he'd bring back their old jobs.
Pretend you're someone who is uneducated and upset with your circumstances, and just plain incapable of seeing those old jobs are truly gone. Which sounds better?
Not really. It's not about race. It's about the money in your pocket.
You can, right now actually! Step one: Stop saying "We all need to come together," and instead say "White people need to come together with black people." There; wasn't so hard, was it?
It seems like the whole world is repeating the same mistakes we here in Finland went through a few years ago. The populist True Finns party got a big share of the votes by shouting the same kind of stuff Brexiters and Trump promise. it didn't take long for them to tank in polls though because they didn't really have any real plans to implement their policies when they were in power.
Too bad now the same cycle is happening in world superpowers instead of small harmless countries like Finland.
TPP is fucked
Ana Kasparian just went ether on the right-winged.
TBH when have you ever been proud of your country in the last 10 years?I'm not proud of my country today. Not at all. Thanks America again for the hard reminder of how you feel.
Where can I even go lolI have two internship applications to a number of U.S. based publications I'm in the middle of.
I get the feeling I won't finish them anymore.
As a Korean, I'm so fucking worried right now.
After a fucking idiotic loon of a president controlled by Rasputin destroyed all relations with North Korea, now this orange bastard, who says protecting South Korea is a waste of money becomes POTUS.
Second Korean war incoming?
"What did he mean by this?"
Gutted,
So he definitely won?
Why is it the right wing nuts always seem to win?
There was a chance to fundamentally change America with a liberal judge but now America will be socially conservative for as year another 20 years.
Today will be a productive day at work for me as I will be avoiding the Internet and radio to avoid the flare up of rage.
DUDE HOW THE FUCK I S TRUKMP WINNING
So, uhm, what can be good from a Trump presidency?
You understand that his party now controls:
- The Presidency
- The Senate
- The House
- The Supreme Court
right? That's all 3 branches of government, and both houses of Congress. They literally can do whatever they want and get away with it. There's no checks and balances or vetos at play anymore.
The Supreme Court takeover especially will haunt America for decades.
A) Nobody has said to 'coddle racists'. This discussion is coming up because, again, people are literally throwing all white people into this bucket because of a slight majority voting for a certain candidate.
B) ASsuming everyone is racist simply because they like a racist candidate is dangerous thinking. It primarily comes down to them thinking certain issues are more important. Period. Do I think it's right to do that? Obviously not, I didn't vote for Trump. But I do think it does no good to scream at the top of your lungs at somebody about how terrible they are if you expect them to take you seriously, because...
C) YOU NEED THESE PEOPLE. At least some of them. If you didn't, Hilary would've won. You are never going to meet anyone in the middle to work out the issues in the country if you close the door before the conversation begins. Plenty of them might not meet you halfway either, fuck those people, but if you won't do it either then you're never going to get anywhere.
Racist white people are a SUBSET of people in the country, a relatively small one most likely. Then you've got the 'diet racist' white people - which I think it's more accurate to describe as racially insensitive rather than racially hateful as people would characterize them. These are people that just don't care about racial stuff, maybe have misinformed opinions in many cases, but more than anything they care more about other aspects than race. THis is probably the majority component of what we're talking about. Beyond these people, are those that vote for Trump for entirely non-racial reasons, but actually are super uncomfortable with his racial assertions, these people are probably a small minority as well. Finally, you move to white people that didn't even vote republican. Not a majority, but a VERY large number (obviously).
When you start saying "Fuck white people" you're alienating every single one of those groups, when the reality is the only one worth alienating is the first one - the actual racist fucks. The only one you can AFFORD to alienate.
colin is being a real fucking dick to people on twitter right now
