I felt this exact way 48 hours ago. I thought the propaganda was to strong. I was surprised by how he did in the rust belt, and now realize people had enough. This liberal push wasn't strong 8 years ago, so it felt good to vote for Obama. The social climate now is much more hostile to the average white person, and thus they had enough and voted.

Trump has house and senate majority. Barring a complete collapse he will hold onto that for the next 4 years. He will be able to get things done, and should be able to get reelected. So, 8 years of getting things done and improving the country will legitimize the republican party and really challenge the democrat's identity.

Athletix, I wish I shared your positive outlook. I really do, but Republicans have shown no gumption since Gingrich. Ryan, McConnell are weak leaders. I don't want to be liked. I want to be right.

Unfortunately, we're in the last years of a Republican south. Blacks are increasing in Georgia & in the 2020 census, we will probably rise to at least 18 electoral votes by then. NC is doing the same, we only have a 5% advantage now. From where are these people coming? New York, Michigan, Ohio, New Jersey, Philadelphia. The Democrat demographics are geographically shifting south. Florida's about gone too.

Trump can't fix this. He's right, about how the establishment has sold us down the river. But it's the establishment with whom he has to work. And regrettably few of the Republicans supported him.

This was big for me. I actually wanted to give Obama a shot in 2008. Now the libs are openly hostile to straight white males. They chose BLM, political correctness, and Muslim apologists. I can't believe any white person could still vote Democrat, TBH.
