I just don't understand the current narrative that racism won this election

Damn near 60,000,000 people voted for trump. 60 fricking million. This wasn't some appalchian, deliverance, backwater County seat race. This was a national presidential race. You are not getting 60 fricking million votes based off racism, misogny, Islamophobia, or homophobia. It's really clear what won this election for trump. He went into the rust belt, that Hillary ignored, and convinced those states that he will be the one to come in and repeal the deals that have hurt their communities.
I may not have supported trump, but the number of people crying about their safety, or wanting to move to Canada, I'd beyond ridiculous and the notion that racism won this election is just such a tired and ignorant position to take

Liberal / MSM logic...You're white, you didn't vote for the Democratic party nominee, therefore you are racist.
What's part don't you understand???

It's much easier and convenient to blame it on that rather than look in the mirror and realize the flaws in who and what you support

The race card is the liberal's final fall back ploy. When there is nothing of substance left, they play it and run from the debate.

Thre main stream news media hadn't learned anything from this election. But that is OK with me. Our hatred of them will only intensify.

Leftists don't have logic on their side. They need something. To their addled brains, it's a combination of Racism and Sexism.
I'm just glad we are getting at least four years of TRUMPISM.

Trump broke African American voting records for the GOP.
As best as I can tell, these are things that won the election, over-simplified of course.
1) GOP base came home, due to...
- Base not wanting Hillary
- Affordable Care Act
- SCOTUS
and
2) Trump won over independents, due to...
- Being anti-establishment candidate compared to Hill
- Promise to keep jobs in USA (huge in rust belt)
- Affordable Care Act
- Independents not wanting Hillary

Blacks voting Dem is natural. Whites voting Republican is racist.
Blacks voting in a block is natural, whites voting in a block is racist.
At least that's what they want you to believe. The fact is a black working stiff has a lot in common with a white working stiff. They have families to feed, a family that depends on them, bills to pay, and a job to do.
They have so much in common that skin color shouldn't make a difference.

fewer votes that romney fwiw.
Its apparent that racism didn't drive this election, as those that are affected by it would have voted.

Blacks working toward their collective interests: justice
Whites working toward their collective interests: racism.
Our answer to this? "No. And frick you."

Unfortunately there is a large segment of our society that just can't fathom losing or that someone would not agree with them. If those things happen the only explanation is that the people on the other side are some how morally or intellectually deficient. They must be racist, sexist or some other reprehensible "ist." It's the only way they can cope with adversity and defeat.

Only about 50% of white people voted for Trump.
Close to 90% of black people voted for the same party....as the last 50 years...
but it is the whites, who split their vote, that are the racist, and those that voted 9 out of 10 to stay with the herd are not the racist?
Two white candidates - (only a white person could have won, no matter who you voted for ) and yet so many black people are making this about the former black president, but once again .... whitey is racist?

It's a lazy narrative. So, SO lazy.
Says more about the people who choose to believe it than anything.

58% of White people who voted, voted for Trump. That means a huge percentage of people of other races and ethnicities voted for him.
On the flip side, 92% of blacks voted for Obama.
Hmmmmm....

They lost...Understand it now?

Admitting that Clinton didn't lose due to racism, sexism, or any other -ism, would require liberals to face the fact that she lost because the DNC has lost its political way with the middle class.
It's one of the largest macro-defense mechanisms you'll ever see.
