A lesson for the left/'liberals'

Post Reply New Topic

Thanks for the clarification. I assumed it was sarcastic just because we have different views (although not completely different).

I hate to admit it but I agree that beating people over the head that they are racist and misogynists is not a very smart tactic. The liberals failed to listen to Trump supporters and failed to look inward as well. That includes me as well.

I still don't like the man though and am genuinely afraid of what is to come.

OK.

I wouldn't be as scared as the media want you to be though. It's them and their friends that are the terrified ones really.

You may be right about that.

No matter how you look at it there is a lot of anger in the air. I'm disappointed with the rioting coming from supposed leftists.

Not a lefty moron but hard-right wingers are some of the biggest simpletons on the planet. You're getting duped so hard by Trump it's going to be hilarious once you finally realize you're all being taken for a ride.

Yes it's tragic, we also know the leadership of the conservative side of republicans from the south are among the greatest intellectual giants known to mankind

The southern republican panelists also suggested that back in 2009, without English as the official language, President Obama would force Americans to speak Spanish.
Honestly what can you expect from their rank and file

Trump won because he actually had a fanbase. Nobody actually wanted to vote for Hillary, she just so happened to be the only viable non-Trump option after Bernie Sanders got stabbed in the back. Whatever the case may be, I'm just glad to be living north of the 49th parallel. If I were religious, I'd be praying for my American friends right now.

Clinton said, "America is already great".

Trump said, "I will make America great".

So Clinton=no change, Trump=change

People wanted change.

America definitely needed change, but not the kind of change Trump brought to the table. Who knows, it might work out better than we expect. It could also work out a lot worse however.

The fatal flaw committed by the Democrats in recent times was dismissing the concerns of the white working class, primarily because said Democrats had taken the union vote for granted, while viewing white workers more and more as the enemy for the conservative views held by many of them. The Democrats need to reconnect with these people who had once been their key constituency, and that is best done by demonstrating to them that their fall from middle class status is not the fault of immigration (legal or illegal), or the coddling of minorities at their expense by Democrats, or by instituting programs for the needy who workers have been convinced are just lazy, but is due to greedy, heartless corporations who send their jobs elsewhere in order to save a pittance by avoiding high wages and benefits. That is, the very people who run the Republican party.

People on the left seem to be the most intolerant nowdays.

In what way? There seems to be a lot of fortune telling coming from Clinton's side and it all turned out to be hideously wrong. A couple of people predicted a Trump victory and were right.

Always gonna have idiots from all sides, but the media and Hollywood is biased. The biggest idiots now are the ones causing violence on the streets and people not being able to accept a democratic result.

Great video, one that Democrats should take to heart.

Trump doesn't represent change. He is about to play buddy buddy with the very establishment he supposedly railed against. The establishment is going to b*tch slap America harder than if Hillary had won.

One of biggest, and possibly the main, reasons Trump won was that several of the hardest hit states that helped Obama win twice when he was running on a platform of change swung his way. If Trump flies the finger in their faces like Obama did for 8 years they will hopefully end his presidency after it's first term. People truly want change, not more lip service for change which I feel Trump represents.

Hope so.

I LOVE it - especially as a guy who dislikes Trump for president as much as I do and STILL would prefer him Hillary.

Guy in the video nailed it.
