If you think it can all be boiled down to sexism, racism, and xenophobia then I don't think we were watching the same election.

bammy was an affirmative action candidate - inexperienced, unqualified, hired because of the color of his skin

that was the cry that got the most attention :idunno:
if the left had any rational objections to trump, they dint do a very good job of publicizing them
Good point. The guy simply came out of nowhere.

I think some rational objections were made, objections that aren't even partisan, but I think a lot of people just didn't care enough. And yes I do agree that too much attention was paid to the race, sex, and immigrant comments.
Hillary was a very tainted candidate from the beginning. She was dishonest, unlikable, and had a criminal mind. She also had absolutely NO charisma, unlike her boorish Husband.

What else was it? I've heard this before but with no good examples- as far as I'm concerned, there's not a single thing liberals have not tried to attach those labels to in everything opposed to what they want
If we were watching different elections, then you must've been watching the wrong one.
But also, perhaps some people simply just didn't see it behind everything.
I did, fairly easily. And still can :idunno:

Your kind has even lower instincts. Snobbery over all people who don't agree with you. White guilt that leads to behavior you wouldn't normally do in order to feel superior to us rednecks.

nah
trump ran on a platform of "not being hillary"
just like bammy ran in 2008 on a platform of "not being bush"
"We're Twenty Trillion Dollars in Debt and We Can't Keep This Up".
How is that appealing to the lowest instincts of angry Whites?
Shouldn't that appeal to the middle or higher instincts of everyone?
I already met that challenge. So again it seems memory difficulties may have played a role in the Trump election.
I was only just wondering when someone would bring race into this and really underscore the Christmas spirit.
lain: And you wondered what a while ago?It isn't. It also isn't the largest part of his message.
We'll differ given how those comments and others like them illustrated a temperament and character that are the foundation of the president-elect.
Well, let's see. He's proposed tax cuts and massive spending. We'll be 200 trillion in debt by the time he's done with us.
But honestly, that's the least of my worries about him.
Speaking of those absolute lowest instincts...
Aw, did I hurt your feelings?
College students being irresponsible with their class choices is not something anyone should have to pay for except their own selves.
I know that may come as a shock to you all, but those kids don't respect the privilege they have to even attend those universities.
Insanity is defending those spoiled whiners over hard working men getting the shaft in rural America :wave2:
It's the part I heard, what do you think the "parts of his message" are in order of largeness?
That's not a zero sum game, the spending and the Taxes.
Taxes are a percentage of how much the economy does. If you expand the economy you can have more tax revenue even with a lower tax rate.
What's your biggest fear about The Donald?
Even after reading this, I am still having an extremely hard time understanding how anyone how believes in Jesus Christ could have supported Trump or celebrate elevation to President. I can't think of a political personality in US history more antithetical to the person of Jesus Christ than it D. Trump. He based his entry into conservative by forcefully lying (bearing false witness) against the current President and kicked off his campaign by rejecting the least of our neighbors (those have neither the legal protections of citizenship nor the even the cover of legal status). It seems to me that by basing his campaign on the rejection of the "least of my brothers," Trump founded that campaign on the rejection of Jesus Christ. Please explain how someone who calls him or herself by Jesus name could support that?
