Good job, America. Baseless irrational fear, and willful ignorance won out over intellect, reason, and critical thinking skills. I am so embarrassed for our country right now.
If your depiction is correct then what does that say for Clinton? That she is so inept she could not defeat a racist, mysoginist, willfully ignorant fear monger.
It says to me that enough U.S. Citizens are uneducated (that was his base demographic after all, before anyone gets all offended by my word choice), ignorant, followers in desperate need of someone to say things that make them feel safe; followers who fall back on hate, scapegoating, and bigotry in order to assuage their own irrational fears, and fill in the spaces where tangible knowledge and critical thinking should be.
It says to me that America wanted a playground bully for president regardless of his character, and embarrassing lack of understanding regarding economic and sociopolitical issues.
It tells me that a lot of Americans are blissfully happy to throw their vote to a pathological liar with the worst case of Dunning Kruger complex I have ever seen, so long as he shouts out all the right buzz words.
It says to me that my country is full of LAZY thinkers.
I guess the only real issue here is why I should find any of the above at all surprising...
