Seems Hillary Was Right.

Seems Hillary Was Right.
They are a bunch of fucking deplorables.

Quote:Top Democrats Are Wrong: Trump Supporters Were More Motivated by Racism Than Economic Issues

Quote:Philip Klinkner, a political scientist at Hamilton College and an expert on race relations, has pored over this ANES data and tells me that “whether it’s good politics to say so or not, the evidence from the 2016 election is very clear that attitudes about blacks, immigrants, and Muslims were a key component of Trump’s appeal.” For example, he says, “in 2016 Trump did worse than Mitt Romney among voters with low and moderate levels of racial resentment, but much better among those with high levels of resentment.”

The new ANES data only confirms what a plethora of studies have told us since the start of the presidential campaign: the race was about race. Klinkner himself grabbed headlines last summer when he revealed that the best way to identify a Trump supporter in the U.S. was to ask “just one simple question: is Barack Obama a Muslim?” Because, he said, “if they are white and the answer is yes, 89 percent of the time that person will have a higher opinion of Trump than Clinton.” This is economic anxiety? Really?

RE: Seems Hillary Was Right.
I can't claim to know about all Trump supporters, but I can confirm my roommate's intentions. Before Trump was elected, she kept her racism under wraps and voted for Trump on the side. Now that Trump is in office, she's spouting out her racism in the most petty and childish ways possible.

I normally stay out of these threads, but I'm still pissed off about her lately. Excuse me.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

Hillary's complicity get's all the more puzzling every day, don't it ?

When she had an opinion and the news reported it, a fuck ton of people (including our very own denizens) basically told her off.

I don't think she can do anything without taking it in the shorts

The same has happened with brexit. Some people I thought were nice have come out of the racist closet and now wont stop blathering about immigrants.

The brother saw that too in Swansea. He had great fun with the brexiteers whenever they started talking immigants, telling them that logically they wanted to deport him too. The inevitable response was "But you're Irish, you're not foreign".

Well thank you, Captain Obvious. It's too bad you weren't on the ball enough to actually defeat King Deplorable. Now step aside, and let competent people take the helm. This goes for the whole DNC establishment.

RE: Seems Hillary Was Right.
There probably are people who think all muslims are brown people, and most people complaining about immigrants aren't talking about people coming from jolly old England.
