World's ending anyway according to the Jesus freaks.
Hillary didn't lose because she didn't focus on 'white males' enough. She lost because FBI Director Comey made a political move, and because the DNC was brazenly stupid to show bias to a candidate that was going to win without their help.
Ha ha ha ha!!!!! Damn! You're hilarious! I can see you dopey goof asses losing another election in four years.

Since about 2012 or so, the SJW's have been on the rise; the jerks who use progressive sounding, virtuous buzzwords to justify being jerks. Before, they were always on the fringe for everyone to laugh at their absurdity. You can go to Tumblr and find them all over the place and they're increasingly getting more influential on twitter. But lately, they've been getting more noticed, especially on college campuses.
It feels like suicide for the democrats and even for the reasonable republicans. I mean, seriously: white people, like it or not, are the majority here, but in this election cycle, these people turned "white male" into an insult in the name of progressivism. I don't know how they think a democracy works, but you don't win elections by insulting the majority. Not to mention, there's the boy-who-cried-wolf effect: we've gotten so used to bratty college kids calling everything racism that when Trump is saying or doing things that are genuinely racist, we ignore it. Racism is a term that's so over-used that it lost its meaning, opening the doors for legitimate, serious racism.
And the kicker? Hillary focused on them but ignored the rust belt states that used to be the backbone of the democratic party. Yeah, the middle class factory workers in Ohio, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Their jobs are suddenly being outsourced to Asian sweatshops and they aren't exactly trained to work the jobs that are replacing them. Yet, instead of talking about those issues, progressives are dismissing them because they're "white males." Instead of listening to their concerns, their worries, their issues, they're being chastised for not memorizing a 19-year-old's ten sylable gender identity that he just came up with last week. Trump, to his credit, actually showed concern for them, claiming he'll back out of Nafta and bring manufacturing back from China (I don't think he'll actually be able to do either, but at least he's showing concern). You want to flip this election around, have Hillary address labor issues, manufacturing jobs, things like that, and don't just cater to a bunch of spoiled college kids.
Definitely spot on. If the dems don't come to that realization then I'm sure the voters who elected Trump this time around will be more than happy to vote for him again in four more years.

Well, yeah. She is a total cretin, and just like you, an intolerant and naive pompous ass.
