Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer. If it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad.

If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time or die by suicide.

 You start out in 1954 by saying, “friend of the family, friend of the family, friend of the family.” By 1968 you can’t say “friend of the family”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “friend of the family, friend of the family.”

This is what happens when you alienate a base that was promised hope and change, but got more of the same, then were offered actual hope and change, but had that yanked away for more of the same again.

This is what happens when you ignore the power of the media and the internet.

This is what happens when you rely on decades-old methods of determining how people feel about issues instead of paying attention to the hundreds of opinions that people volunteer freely online.

This is what happens when you assume you will win elected office because you "deserve to win".

This was preventable.

This was avoidable.

This is bullshit.

They wanted economic and political change that benefits the poor and middle class. Hillary was hated by so many people on both sides, it was stupid to go with her. But keep telling yourself that, if it makes you feel better.

I'm from the south, so I'm used to this.

The idea is you're supposed to take care of yourself. Helping others, or receiving help yourself, is seen as a generally lovely thing to do. I know folks that are cancer survivors that hate the idea of a health system helping them out.

I used to defend the United States to all my European friends who hate it. I used to look at the strides you achieved in so many things, in so many ways and see something, if flawed, more good then bad.

Now I just don't know what to think. Like U.S: is at influential in my life as my own country.

Well, you make good entertainment. Good music, good TV, okay movies. This is what I have to settle with, I suppose.
