Were social justice warriors responsible for the election outcome?

Since when is Green Jobs ignoring the issue?  But Trump, selling his invisible unicorn, said that would kill Coal jobs!  And it's about damn time Coal is killed.  It's dying anyway.  Might as well replace it with jobs that are sustainable.  Like... oh, I don't know, Green Jobs.  But no, let's keep coal alive a little longer.  Put it on life support, so that the people working in those jobs now can have some temporary reassurance--all at the cost of the future (in more ways than one)

And yes, it's time to abolish the Electoral College.  The house of representatives are already set up so that states have a voice.  Presidential Candidates only give a fuck about swing states.  Why try to gain votes as a Democrat in the state of Texas?  Why try to gain votes as a Republican in the state of New York?  For as much as a President is supposed to represent everyone, they fucking don't.
