For the Libs

[Bruce_T_Laney]

I'm going to disagree with you and the author and before you write I am not Liberal, well I am Unitarian and Libertarian, so yeah I am very Social Liberal...

Was I happy when Trump won?

No...

In fact yesterday I had to spend the day cheering up my brother because he was so distraught over Trump victory he is considering leaving the country and moving to the Philippines and I know many of Trump voters will chime in with their typical nonsense when they read this...

Look your side had it chance to win and lost. Hillary Clinton was the most flawed candidate I have ever seen the Democratic Party run in my life and she lost to a Billionaire Richie Rich TV personality, and why?

Simple, she did not connect to the white women voter to win them over and it was not the white male that is uneducated that sunk her. Also she had lower results in the African American community and Hispanic\Latino community than President Obama and yet it is the uneducated white voter fault to you.

Also let add in Gary Johnson garner over three percent of the vote and you will scuff at this but go down into states like Florida and see the percentage of voters for Johnson and do the math and add in Jill Stein vote count and ask yourself how much did the third party candidate hurt your candidate in states like Florida and Michigan, and then tell me how the uneducated white male voter was the problem for Hillary Clinton!?!

So as fiscal Liberals like you write about the uneducated male voter the reality your candidate did not lose because of them but because she could not get the vote that President Obama garner.

Those like you thought because she is a she it would have the same reaction as when President Obama ran twice but it did not and the reason why is because Hillary Clinton is viewed negatively which hurt her in demographics she needed to win...

Also let me ask you this and in states like Maine and New Hampshire how many uneducated voters live up there?

When you can not carry New Hampshire in a clear victory then your problem is not the uneducated male voter it is your candidate!

The next four years will be miserable for those like you and let me write 2018 and 2020 there is no glimmer of hope and Warren will not win in 2020 either and I will expect you to write again how the uneducated male voter is the cause but the reality is your candidates can not connect with the minorities and female voter that you need to win!

Enjoy the next four years!

I seriously cant understand how a HILLARY CLINTON supporter has the audacity to say/post some bullshit like that. SERIOUSLY blows my mind.
"uneducated" LMAO

You were warned. Jesus, you people.
I'll defend my drop outs to the death, and you know it. This is Keillor not a CDZ piece.

Poll shows more women backed Obama than Hillary Clinton

Read the link and share it with the your friends because it was not the white uneducated voter that sunk Clinton!

Of course it was. They had help from some women.

I hated Clinton going into this thing and I agree with what you say. She truly deserved the lack of support she got. I hated Trump more, is all.
I mean this sincerely: I love sharing stuff I read that makes me laugh. I didn't post it to start a fight.

He's just got issues with me this week. Any excuse will do.

Trump voters, back out now. This is a safe space for Unitarian bird watchers. Just wanted to share a smile with any who haven't seen this yet.

Trump voters will not like what happens next
By Garrison Keillor November 9 at 8:39 AM

So he won. The nation takes a deep breath. Raw ego and proud illiteracy have won out, and a severely learning-disabled man with a real character problem will be president. We are so exhausted from thinking about this election, millions of people will take up leaf-raking and garage cleaning with intense pleasure. We liberal elitists are wrecks. The Trumpers had a whale of a good time, waving their signs, jeering at the media, beating up protesters, chanting “Lock her up” — we elitists just stood and clapped. Nobody chanted “Stronger Together.” It just doesn’t chant.

The Trumpers never expected their guy to actually win the thing, and that’s their problem now. They wanted only to whoop and yell, boo at the H-word, wear profane T-shirts, maybe grab a crotch or two, jump in the RV with a couple of six-packs and go out and shoot some spotted owls. It was pleasure enough for them just to know that they were driving us wild with dismay — by “us,” I mean librarians, children’s authors, yoga practitioners, Unitarians, bird-watchers, people who make their own pasta, opera-goers, the grammar police, people who keep books on their shelves, that bunch. The Trumpers exulted in knowing we were tearing our hair out. They had our number, like a bratty kid who knows exactly how to make you grit your teeth and froth at the mouth.

Alas for the Trump voters, the disasters he will bring on this country will fall more heavily on them than anyone else. The uneducated white males who elected him are the vulnerable ones, and they will not like what happens next.

To all the patronizing B.S. we’ve read about Trump expressing the white working-class’s displacement and loss of the American Dream, I say, “Feh!” — go put your head under cold water. Resentment is no excuse for bald-faced stupidity. America is still the land where the waitress’s kids can grow up to become physicists and novelists and pediatricians, but it helps a lot if the waitress and her husband encourage good habits and the ambition to use your God-given talents and the kids aren’t plugged into electronics day and night. Whooping it up for the candidate of cruelty and ignorance does less than nothing for your kids.

We liberal elitists are now completely in the clear. The government is in Republican hands. Let them deal with him. Democrats can spend four years raising heirloom tomatoes, meditating, reading Jane Austen, traveling around the country, tasting artisan beers, and let the Republicans build the wall and carry on the trade war with China and deport the undocumented and deal with opioids, and we Democrats can go for a long , brisk walk and smell the roses.

I like Republicans. I used to spend Sunday afternoons with a bunch of them, drinking Scotch and soda and trying to care about NFL football. It was fun. I tried to think like them. (Life is what you make it. People are people. When the going gets tough, tough noogies.) But I came back to liberal elitism.

Don’t be cruel. Elvis said it, and it’s true. We all experienced cruelty back in our playground days — boys who beat up on the timid, girls who made fun of the homely and naive — and most of us, to our shame, went along with it, afraid to defend the victims lest we become one of them. But by your 20s, you should be done with cruelty. Mr. Trump was the cruelest candidate since George Wallace. How he won on fear and bile is for political pathologists to study. The country is already tired of his noise, even his own voters. He is likely to become the most intensely disliked president since Herbert Hoover. His children will carry the burden of his name. He will never be happy in his own skin. But the damage he will do to our country — who knows? His supporters voted for change, and boy, are they going to get it.

Back to real life. I went up to my home town the other day and ran into my gym teacher, Stan Nelson, looking good at 96. He commanded a landing craft at Normandy on June 6, 1944, and never said a word about it back then, just made us do chin-ups whether we wanted to or not. I saw my biology teacher Lyle Bradley, a Marine pilot in the Korean War, still going bird-watching in his 90s. I was not a good student then, but I am studying both of them now. They have seen it all and are still optimistic. The past year of politics has taught us absolutely nothing. Zilch. Zero. Nada. The future is scary. Let the uneducated have their day. I am now going to pay more attention to teachers.

I don't know if Keillor and some other lefties understand what happened. The Trumpsters crashed into the private party at the country club, tossed everyone wearing a tuxedo out, kicked out the orchestra and replaced Mozart with Garth Brooks.

In other words, I'm sure we can think in a linear fashion and expect Republican politicians to behave the same way they have been.

I stopped reading after the insulting first line. Liberals are so butt-hurt - acting like spoiled little whiny children. HAHA

Warned ya. Can't read?

OK, I'll play. Enlighten me. What was I supposed to get out of your post?

"Back out now" ????

Uh, OK. Care to elaborate?

 

[EverCurious]

The media lied to you. Trumps been around forever, a lot of us already know he's been flirting with politics since the 90s and he has always had decent ideas.

Back in the day, they used to claim he had the midas touch - AFTER he recovered from the recession and his bankruptcies - because everything he touched turned to gold.

He's joked in the past (I this this was around 2000), I remember Letterman asking him if he was going to run and Trump said "I don't know... You feel like winning?" Then he was on the Reformist ticket but he left the party because he decided Buchanan was a racist prick.

What's funny is you fools don't realize he was a Democrat for ages, until the party shifted and went far left, he left them too. Then he was an Independent until he went Republican to run (as far as I know)

My hope remains with a sane Republican party. I am just whiting out the POTUS. Will politely pretend he is not there and see what the party comes up with.

I think you missed his point. She won by like, what, 1200 votes or so?
Look at 2012 and 2008.
Hell even John Kerry did better than the hildabeast in 04'.
