WORKING CLASS NERO
DON’T LISTEN TO THE RHETORIC THAT HILLARY LOST BECAUSE OF "WORKING CLASS VOTERS" — IT’S FAR MORE TROUBLING THAN THAT

During his campaign, Donald Trump lied without compunction or conscience, and maybe even without awareness. He regularly misrepresented Hillary Clinton's policies and positions — and his own (when they could be pinned down at all). He seemed to take pleasure in painting the bleakest possible picture of the country — its crime rates, its debt, its military power — even when reality presented plenty of reasons for hope. He inflated the size of his crowds, he exaggerated his endorsements, he embroidered his stump speeches with outlandish conspiracy theories. At one point, in a fit of cosmic literalism, his senior adviser's pants actually caught on fire. At this rate, the only jobs program Trump can guarantee is full employment for fact checkers.

But the biggest lie about the Trump campaign is the one the media told — and continues to tell — on his behalf: that Trump was carried to the White House by the strength of the "working class."

5. Well yes we certainly know that racial hatred and fear were a large part of what motivated this

electorate. Trashpot had many many dog whistles. No matter who or what you hate or fear in your life he had a dog whistle for it.

I'm very disappointed in millions of my fellow Americans. I will get no satisfaction when we are all proved right about Trashpot Trump.
Hopefully that will teach them a lesson that identity politics is no good and perhaps they should of based their vote on other qualifications.

If you're a racist maybe you shouldn't vote for someone just because they are one too LOL

I am especially disappointed in turncoat Democrats who supported Bernie but hate Hillary. But it is a free country (for now) to do as you please. I just wonder who they will demonize and vilify next...these alt right and left people. I wonder how they will pass the time until their next target is chosen.
