the real issue is the fact that Trump actually isnt sexist or racist at all. he is just presented that way with out of context gaffs or whatever. he is only sexist/racist by the narrow social justice re-definition of the words. that means every time people were told to be offended about him a certain portion of people saw it as positive

A certain portion of the world should check themselves more carefully. They might be giving themselves a pass on thinking some bullshit.

Their votes count whether they check themselves or not.

I know. The idea that they won so they are correct isn't quite right tho.

I guess gloating about how terrible HRC is to you is more credible than talking about how great your President is.

There was almost 30 years of hating Clintons. That investment paid off, sort of.

People who want to enforce existing immigration laws are literally Nazis imo

White supremacists are close enough to nazis for me. There's no need for hyperbole.

Remember when lower middle class white people started to vote for Republicans and the media instantly stopped calling them the "working class" and switched to "uneducated whites"?

Nope! Sounds like some defensive baloney.

Some of you are acting as though "Correct the Record" is still a paying gig.

While some others think if they can just poo poo on Hillary enough Trump will start to have crossover appeal.

The KKK and skinheads are certainly the number one problem in America today.

They all vote GOP for sure but there are way more racists who follow suit but are less vocal. That second group have a vested interested in conserving massive inequalities but they don't have to shout about it. They still do all the time but the threshold for getting called a racist is actually pretty high in polite company.

If you didn't click it's an article about an existing labor shortage in Lousiana.

quote:

“The stance the president is taking is a concern,” says Dwayne Gafford, owner of Gafford Builders and president of the Capital Region Builders Association. “At a National Home Builders Association meeting in January, one big topic was the labor shortage. This had nothing to do with immigration. Generally speaking, we have a labor shortage. Since then, the president’s agenda on labor and immigration has become more of a concern to builders.”

Nah, you didn't read it. Get far enough and you'll see what they're talking about in terms of having to offer people more money.

This part?

quote:

“The visa program is well conceived. Employers have to prove they cannot fill jobs to use it,” he says. “They have to pay thousands to advertise jobs, and if any American comes along, they get the job.”

The problem is no Americans come along. Or if they do, they don’t stay. Labor unions have argued Americans don’t go after farm jobs because wages are too low. But the 2017 wage rate for Louisiana H-2A workers is above minimum wage at $10.38 an hour.

“We’ve had farmers offer to pay $20 to $25 an hour,” Breaux says. “It’s not the pay. It’s the job task.”

Immigrant labor generates value for US companies and they pay taxes.

It's funny to me that there are breitbarters out there who think illegal migrant workers are getting free college.

Wow all I have to do is be a US company then instead of a regular working person whose wages are lower because an immigrant will work it under the table.

Thanks democrats!!

Gee, it seems like neither party has much stomach to go after "small" business. I feel like regular US citizens should all be able to see that.

Everything about this election was perfect, well done to everybody involved. I don't see how you could possibly top this performance next time, but given that you have already exceeded my highest hopes I will wait with eager anticipation.

Wait till Kanye runs and wins. You haven't seen poo poo.
