If she would havent said she wrote it by herself then folks wouldnt be going as hard

Plus the super denial they are presenting .
I understand some plausible denial


They mad at hillary for doing the same thing

Trump didn't come out of a void.

Not he didn't. He is a smart business man that knew he had a large group of inept voters whom hate the current President based on the color of his skin and his name.

Seth Meyers said it best on why Trump came about as the nominee

 

[wubalubadubdub]

So when the Republicans impeached clinton. Was that because of his skin color as well? Everyone who doesn't like obama is a bigot? **** like that is why people vote for trump.

But you said that you were a "straight ticket Democrat" though.

No idea what Ben Carson is smoking

 “When you look at the principles that are espoused by Christ, by Christianity, and you look at what's espoused by evil,” Carson said. “And then you look at things like killing babies, you look at things like redefining marriage, away from what the biblical definition is, I think that there's pretty good consistency there.”

I think he harped on things that a segment of the population feels nothing is being done about. Then he went to the next level of offensiveness so that the media would pick up on it and give him attention.

Neither democrats or republicans want to stop illegal immigration. Period. Then trump comes and people listen.

Obama comes off across as indifferent at best when it comes it islamic extremism. I think it's safe to say that he feels the threat is exaggerated if not imaginary. Every time there is an attack he lectures americans about islam being a peaceful religion and tells people about the christian crusades and to get off their high horse. Downplays it all the time. Won't even name it. Calls it workplace violence.

Well then trump comes along and seems to actually want to fight it even if it's with an idea that isn't even possible. But it's something. He appears strong according to his supporters. And messed up enough that the media gives him attention.

Trump didn't come out of a void. You didn't even mention illegal immigration when talking about getting rid of people. The media does the same and people are pissed off. It's not hard to see why someone desperate and in idgaf mode goes to him

He was talking about trade deals ALOT. Many people on the left hate NAFTA and TPP too.

I'm living just fine. Status quo is fine for me. Hillary represents that.

So when the Republicans impeached clinton. Was that because of his skin color as well? Everyone who doesn't like obama is a bigot? **** like that is why people vote for trump.

-Obama's military just murder 85 innocent people trying to fight Islamic terrorism. He practically terrorist innocents everyday with his **** boy drone war.

Miss me with this notion he doesn't take it dead serious because his rhetoric is not extreme or that he doesn't bend the knee to Israel. He takes it dead serious

God forbid he warns people against indicting all Muslims for the crimes on a few.

-Secondly, Bill Clinton was HATED by the GOP for his empathy towards the black community, and bringing that empathy to the national stage. As a governor and as President. The things about Clinton is that the bills he passed that damaged the black community the most, his clown *** actually thought it was for the best.

Go look into why Bill Clinton was called the first black president, it was not some joke, it was because the GOP was doing him dirt like black men get done in similar circumstances

 

[wubalubadubdub]

Um yes? So? I'm discussing why i think people vote for trump.

Could have sworn yesterday's theme was "Make America work again" but we heard very little of that. Then Uncle Ben woke up and here we are.

 

[wubalubadubdub]

Perception is reality. Whether it's real or not, that's what alot of people think about his stance.

He gets significantly more animated talking about republucans and climate change. It is what it is and that's the vibe alot of people get. The media isn't even talking about that tragedy enough for people to notice. They'd rather focus on plagerism.

They hated clinton because that's basically when the extreme divided government started to go nuts. They hated him because he was a winning democrat. No other reason needed. Blaming that on hatred of black people is just odd. And yes i know his nickname. He played the sax, was very cool, and related somewhat to their struggle. That's not why they went for him

Bull ****

So people are voting for a bigot because they are tired of being called bigots. What a load or nonsense

The Tea Party is what stripped Obama of most of his political power, and punished democrats across state governments. And the Tea Party movement is rooted in racism under the guise of 'small government values"

The Democrats are willing to cut of the supply of jobs for undocumented immigrants, that is the best you can do,. Demanding a wall be put up and mass deportations are stupid *** idea, based in racism and xenophobia.

I'm sick and tired or this "will someone just think of the angry self destructive conservative white people, oh please oh please" argument

 

[aepps20]

Excellent speech by Benjamin Franklin Carson. It would've been better if he carried his knife and lunged at someone but he's saving that for 2020. BEN CARSON 2020.

 

[wubalubadubdub]

I'm not saying bigots deserve empathy. I'm just thinking about why he has so much popularity. His ideas are dumb, unworkable, or morally wrong. I'm just analyzing the situation.

These poeple aren't going anywhere after he loses. It's probably important to study the situation.

Look at the base, this is something they rallied around since Obama got in office and started to question his legitimacy. This just didnt happen a year ago. The conspiracies, the constant fear mongering, the doom and gloom. Trump was at the forefront on the whole brither movement. The situation is the fringe part of the party is now the majority.

 

[dragicon]

I honestly don't think Trump would have as strong of a following if he was running against a white man in November. Him running against scumbag Hill definitely adds to his appeal because he's a white man in a country built for white men by white men

Trump just steamrolled a **** ton of white male candidates to become the republican nominee.

I've met a few trump supporters, and often they are either employed by the government or old men who think he is a successful business man. Most of them also just say the same crap he spews:

"I'm going to bring business back to America"
"China is a threat"
"Keep Mexicans out of the country"
"Muslims are terrible"
"I'm tired of everything being so PC"

I honesty think trump is just saying a lot of that garbage himself becuase he realized there are many people in the states who think that stuff. I also think his whole candidacy was an elaborate move to promote himself. He just said the most outrageous stuff so that the focus would be on him. Then people started to agree with him He, with the help of the media (all sides), publicized it.

Exactly. The Republican base exposed itself as a group ingrained in bigotry and racism long before Trump entered the equation.

The question is, are the majority subconscious in their bigotry and honestly don't see it, or are they conscious of it and just too cowardly or deceitful to admit it.
