Were social justice warriors responsible for the election outcome?

You're welcome, but we'll see if you're still thanking me later.    

And that is what we will have to wait for. 

It'll be like one of those movies where a mob of unidentified people goes apeshit and commits some horrible crime.  People will first distance themselves from the event, and then a few years down the road outright deny they ever had anything to do with it. Or you can just call it The W. Factor.

Maybe those folks are simply untrainable to do anything else in society?

I don't really beleive that, but I'm pretty damn sick of these lazy asses complaining how the economy has left them behind.  Go get an actual useful skill that somebody needs.  Maybe we should put telephone switchboard operators, computer.punchcard runners, or vacuum tube assemblers back to work...

I'm not even 50 and I'm in my fourth careeer due to progress.  Do I want to go back programming reports on an IBM AS/400?  No....  Do these people really want to mine coal?

Boggles the mind

Are you suggesting they pull themselves up by the bootstraps/don't seek government handouts/become rugged individualists/make their own way? 

Because that's what they've been telling those lazy, shiftless minorities to do for all these years. Or would that force them to admit that the government has legitimate role in the quality of life of its citizens? 

What a conundrum for them... well, it would be if they thought about it for half a second. But what the fuck do you tell people who believe Scalia was murdered or that Obama is a Kenyan Muslim? 

It's all so confusing.

Exactly Opo..  That's been the republicans calling card for years.  Now they are mad because they "think" the economy has left them behind.  Someone needs to open a uranium mine.  I'd be willing to bet that 90% of the Trump voters are financially better off today than they were 8 years ago, but facts don't play into this at all.
