Yeah, this lovely state may actually flip if the Hispanic community goes out big this year. Doubly so if the Native community decides to say no to Trump. Sun City and the white rural areas aren't going to stop that.

Help me wrap my head around Assange - he says they're holding on to info that would guarantee Clinton's indictment, but the announcement is just an admission of the opposite, right? If they had good info they wouldn't let her know they have it in advance.

President black, future scary, please make the fear go away until I die. Oh, it's so cold. So cold.

Basically this. My grandparents keep saying stuff like "Oh your generation will have to handle things, all this trouble, and you can try this stuff (Socialism in my case) that you keep talking about. But there are just too many of us in our generation who don't want change, we want things the way they've been, we invested in it and we'd see it as bad." So yeah, they vote the way they do because any change scares them.

It's even better because the only thing that allowed my grandpa to have a middle class lifestyle at all was the existence of strong unions into the 1970s. They both directly benefited from worker protections. But now they're both anti-union, because "The unions went too far!". How did they go to far? Negotiating it so that polemen got their birthday's off...

Somehow, living in a metropolitan area in Maine with a considerable population of Somali immigrants (both Black and Muslim) that passes through years without a racist shooting incident - suddenly feels very comfortable (in terms of multiculturalism) compared to the frequent bullshit going on in the south and midwest right now.

Such a statement seems rather obvious, really.

I honestly don't know how Phoenix has avoided anything going down. Even our recent big BLM marches that went "bad" weren't anything to write home about compared to other large cities.

Also, they're pretty much the only wild honey bee species here in Arizona and really aren't that horrifically aggressive. I've seen a swarm maybe once at most and never been swarm stung.

As a resident of Arizona, I hope you all appreciate our long term project to concentrate as many racist seniors into Sun City as possible.

We're nearing phase two, where we lower a concrete sarcophagus over the entire retirement community.

At least we have the Hispanic and Native communities, and even some of the college town kids, keeping us from falling into being West Florida. Plus, by concentrating old racists from the west, we allow Colorado and California to flourish. The midwestern ones can just go home and ruin their own states further.

Yes he's basically giving a "policy" speech which is exactly the same as everything he's said, build the wall and Mexico will pay for it. But he said a few nice things about Mexico and Mexicans and instead of yelling about Mexican immigrants he's talking about SANCTUARY CITIES and CRIMINAL ALIENS.

Same poo poo just with a slight dogwhistle of not actually saying "deport Mexican rapists" but instead "deport criminal aliens and end sanctuary cities"

His supporters will eat it up and he may sway a few on the fence bigots, but I doubt this will get him much goodwill elsewhere. Certainly not with the majority of the Hispanic community.

It was in line at a grocery store, and this older, maybe 60-something white guy in a Trump hat decided to ask the young black guy working the bag station at the register who he was voting for, so he said Hillary. Dude then went into a mild spiel about how she's bad and how he should change his mind, when the guy in front of me in line, an older black man jumped in and told him, hey man it's his choice, it's a personal thing. So MAGA hat decides to ask them both what Hillary will do for the black man and why all the Democrat-run cities are so bad for blacks and all that poo poo. It ended with an agreement to disagree, so not horrible all things told, especially in Arizona.
