Yeh I told my friends I didn't believe the women coming forward with grope stories and that the rape case had a name and address that didn't exist - all sounds like the workings of creamer and foval

And now they're not talking to me

Wow, I never thought I could have respect for liberal, but you have mine. But something tells me your not as much a liberal as you think.

Why is it that people were actually frightened to state that they supported Trump publicly?


Maybe bc deep down they know voting for a misogynist douche reality tv star is fricking ludicrous but their hatred for the left is forcing their hand and they're ashamed.

There are Trump signs on my street...in Austin, TX

I dont like the way that people dont engage in discourse first but the shock of finding out that someone you know is voting for that man is eye opening in a bad way. We feel like it is legitimate and even worse than having Bush in office. Bc electing a shitty businessman and actor, who has never held any office, is dumb. It is. Sorry. People are upset for good reason.

Not a "progressive" liberal. Or a SJW. But I side with most liberal issues.

I do support the 2nd Amendment and have a few guns myself.

They aren't ashamed. They don't want to get attacked for having an opinion different from some on the left. THE left justifies it's hate.

It has nothing to do with shame. It has everything to do with intolerant douchebags like you.

The fact that y'all still don't understand why it happened is amazing.

Quit being a "liberal". Your "side" has been co-opted by Leftists.

shouldn't have nominated Hillary Clinton.

Implies bernie or elizabeth would have won. Nothing could be more wrong. Here is why MAGA won.
1. Washington DC is doing what is best for them.
2. People who opposed bad policy are sick and tired of being called racist.
3. People who believe illegal aliens are a net deficit to the country are sick of being labeled racist.
4. People who believe bringing 650,000 people from terrorist state is stupid are tired of being labeled racist.
5. People who support marriage as 1 man and 1 women being called homophobic and oppose abortion as anti-women have had enough.
6. People are sick and tired of having their will rejected by an imperial SCOTUS.
7. Same goes for voter ID and of course be a racist if you believe in the integrity of the process.
8. People are sick and tired of seeing monuments to their heritage destroyed because less than 20% of the population are faux "offended."
9. People no longer want those burning down a CVS to be "given space" to protest.
10. Tired of what do we want? dead cops When do we want it? now
11. Mad as hell at Soros paid thugs trying to invade and shut down Trump rallies.

You still don't get why your party was soundly rejected. You are the type of person killing the dem party.

There are most definitely idiots on both sides. But only one side is currently rampaging through the streets destroying property, harming people, and loudly blaming a single ethnic group for all of society's ills. If you can't see the difference, I can't help you.

One thing that might help, however, is if you do some self-reflection and soul-searching. You're right in that a reality TV star was just elected as president over your candidate. That means more people liked what he had to say than liked what your candidate had to say. Maybe, just maybe, the problem is not with the electorate, but with the fact that your party and its candidate didn't have a winning message. Instead of the current tactic of just yelling your losing message more loudly, it might behoove you to go back to the drawing board and come up with a new message with broader appeal.

You're a perfect example of the problem with many "Progressives". Instead of calling out idiots on your side, you immediately go into defense mode and try to point the finger at the other side.

It's a big reason I can't stand Progressives. No matter how rational they seem to be, they'll never dare admit any wrongdoings from their side. It's sickening.

Yes, and unfortunately with the way the world works, you're guilty by association. Not fair, but all this people are painting all of you in an awful light.

Borderline socialists

Everybody just needs to calm the frick down. I'm not happy either but lets just take it day by day and issue by issue. For example, most on the left are anti-TPP. So is Trump. It's going away now. That's a good thing.


Trump is also against corruption and big money/special interests in politics.

I don't get the leftist hate for him. Y'all should be excited at the opportunity that we finally elected and outsider willing to address those core issues. Even if it means he passes some conservative reforms you disagree with, he does align with some important issues on the left.

Trump won Because hillary is a terrible candidate. I keep telling my liberal friends this. 3rd party candidates received over 4% of the vote. last election they received just over 1%. Bernie would have gotten a lot of those 3rd party votes and trump would have had a tougher time getting the blue collar vote. Fact is hillary being a corrupt pos is why the dems lost. These protests should be aimed at the DNC not trump.
