In a way politicians are somewhat reflective of the values of its people.

Many people do not know how to rise above insulting the other side and trying to see why they vote the way they do. Most people hold tightly to the edge they have in life. Politicians abuse that because they can.

I've said before to other liberal friends "I can see why people could vote Trump" and in a lot of cases their answer is "NO NO NO THERE IS NO REASON TO VOTE FOR HIM YOU KNOW IM A MINORITY!!!"

But, nearly half the country voted for Trump and they sure aren't all redneck racists with no education.

So long as people firmly keep their heads up their asses politicians will abuse this, keep us fighting over ridiculous stuff and insulting each other so we overlook our own side's faults, and each side (R and D) can pillage the country in their own way when they get in power, and avoid a narrative that really solves a problem cause we are too busy worrying about Trump's remarks or Clinton's emails or whether Obummer is a secret mooslem.

Well I'm glad you found a way to feel superior to everyone

My absolute favorite type of person, post-election, is the stoic philosopher-king who knew exactly what would unfold and is so above the fray they have miles of space under them from which to talk down to you. They get the deeper meaning, you see.

The other side:

is anti-science
pro-state-sponsored christianity
thinks immigrants are taking their jobs
thinks we can undo automation and return their jobs and this is somehow liberals' fault
wants to roll back roe v. wade
wants poll taxes
are worried about trannies going pee
are worried about gays marrying

... it goes on. gently caress these people sideways. Also, gently caress you lol you suck.

Nearly half the country didn't vote. The ~55% that did voted bigly against Trump. But that doesn't matter, does it, you loving goblin? In your brain you're already right. You didn't need to think about what actually happened. Or look up what you're talking about. And because I called you a name back there, you know I'm wrong, because I didn't even try to figure out why you're so blase about things that affect people with lives. I wonder why?

Trump being President is good in the long run because pretty much anyone will be able run now either on a platform of not being Trump or they can have a rap sheet a mile long that isn't nearly as bad as his.

This insane shrieking reaction to someone suggesting the need to appeal to swing voters is telling. They didn't say anything bigoted or even express support for Trump. They literally just said that there are many people who voted for Trump who are winnable if you don't consider them subhuman. So what are you reacting in passionate defence of?

just woke up and did a lol because Trump, who claims that all MSM are fake news and people should trust him because he knows, literally went on record to admit that he fabricated a story about Sweden because he saw some garbage on Fox News and just ran with it

I got a Nigerian Prince email at work the other day. I thought to myself, "People still do this?" And then I remembered that 63 million people voted to elect Donald J Trump the president of these great United States of America.

Maybe the greatest scam of all time. LOL
