I'm taking November 8th, 2016 off. "This place is going to be fun."


Good job cherry picking...I'm sure you stumbled across multiple posts where I also mentioned what an absolute shite candidate she was.

and this place was fun November 8th.

No one believes that Trump voters are rich. Quite the opposite. Trump apologists tend to be nostalgic middle class baby boomers and poor rural white Americans.

A few things:
Trump accurately interpreted the American zeitgeist and was able to directly speak to many who had been ignored.
Authenticity. There is a premium placed on authenticity these days and you are punished if you appear to be fake. Strangely, despite the tan and combover, Trump is authentic. Especially next to HRC.
Business experience vs political
HRC. Pretty much anyone else likely would have beaten Trump. That won’t be the case during reelection and I’m almost wondering if the melt from the left might not be even more glorious than 16 when they lose again in 20.

liberals were shutting down any discussion and acting like conservatives were sub human apes whose opinions and concerns did not deserve to be heard. Kind of similar to what a lot of hard line right wingers are doing to liberals now.

edit: besides the fact the hilary is a count. a lot of folks were voting against her, not voting for trump.

You’re a simpleton.

My hypothesis doesn’t assume that rich voters did vote for HRC, only that they didn’t vote for Trump. Your cute infograph doesn’t address non voters or how each group proportionately represents the American population.

A more telling statistic would be the count of voters in each group as compared to the population.

Edited didn’t to did

Far more advanced than you at this point in the "argument." He's at least provided some substance for his argument.


You should research how to research and then try to prove you "hypothesis," DEGenerate.

Huh?The OP was about how Trump got elected and you responded with "No one believes Trump's VOTERS are rich"

So now it's has nothing to do with voters because I proved you wrong?

If you read Twitter Facebook and watch cable news yes the term deplorables applies I wouldn't think that deplorables would include a bunch of rich people do you?

In other words I think he's talking about perception of trump voters or the association from intentional labeling.

Most of the folks in my circle are small business owners in construction though I believe a lot of our Hispanic workers are confused about Trump and for the most part they don't say anything.

Not sure when deplorables started to become part of this discussion but I would guess nobody wants to be referred to in that manner no matter what their income But I think you could call the people who harassed the Homeland Security director were "deplorable" and it least one of them apperas to have come from an upper middle class background.

Not really because these were his exact words.

That's not what Obama said. He said she was the most qualified candidate ever. Remember? Surely you wouldn't dispute your American idol would you?
