Yeah, I must say he does have a cavalier attitude re: the notion that other nations would have nuclear programs and I disagree with that

Getting along with russia is a good idea, neoliberals freak me the gently caress out with their war mongering against russia

I don't know much about Trump's gently caress NATO stance, I think you're referring to him pissing and moaning about other NATO members not pulling their weight. But thats true so I donno what to tell you

Banning people based on their religion is horrible and reprehensible, but its a domestic issue not foreign policy so its not what i was talking about

I dont think she was gunning for war with Russia, she's just more inclined to acknowledge the war-posturing Russia and Putin are actively doing, and her experience with foreign policy at least means she would've come to the presidency preloaded with a plan to deal with them. I think Trump is gonna give Putin whatever he wants so he doesn't have to deal with an actual world altering confrontation.

As for the Muslim ban, when it inevitably evolves into "Ban Muslims from certain countries" you can bet your rear end it's a foreign policy issue.

Most of the people who voted Hillary in the primary were going to vote Dem in the general no matter what. Minorities are a locked in Dem demographic who by and large don't get a choice. Bernie got a lot of new voters in on the Dem primaries and did very well with whites, who turned out to be the key to this election (and also every other election ever).

This election also came down to turnout. Hillary could have won if she could have gotten Democratic asses out of chairs and into the voting booths, but shes a pretty dogshit candidate with no charisma or charm. Bernie could motivate people. Ironically his gently caress off huge rallies would have been what the Dems needed to turn out the vote.

So the theory is Bernie would have done better with whites, not lost any minorities, and would have increased Dem turnout, all leading to a Dem victory.

fwiw, based on where HRC lost and how this election played out, I agree with all of this.

Don't think Bernie would have won Florida, for instance, but he wouldn't have ran so far behind in White Dem counties in MI/OH/PA/IA/WI.

after Bernie lost I kept thinking about donating to Hillary but never did, I rationalized it based on her earnings advantage, I figured she wouldn't need the money

In hindsight she clearly needed it, and yet I'm more glad than ever that I didn't contribute because lol how badly do you have to mismanage your money to outraise your opponent to this degree and still lose this badly?

Nope, just wait till all the riots that will happen under President Trump. Racial tension was high as gently caress and there were already riots under the first black president. Racial tensions will metaphorically explode under Trump.

I wonder how millennial are going to react to social progress actually being rolled back. It's basically been 10 straight years of small but steady victories in a variety of areas and you've got a whole generation of college-aged people who have never had to conceive of things getting worse socially.

I'm not talking in terms of election in the future, just in a general psychological sense of having these seemingly settled battles spring forth again.
