Trump 2016

[Swanicyouth]

You dont care if ``` marriage is illegal?

No.

Don`t care much either way.

And, for the record....

I don`t care if abortion is legal.

And, I don`t care if marijuana is legal.

Reason being, is, quite frankly - I`m not going to be engaging in a GĀ marriage, smoking dope, and my GF isn`t having an abortion.

Sorry,
None of these things are happening to me...

Honestly, my guess is the majority of Americans are not doing these things, and don`t care much either way... It may not be popular to admit it, but I couldn`t care less.

Prolly why Trump one the election..... Silent majority....

I care more about labeling GMO`s and or stopping the use of glyphosate more then all those issues as well.

Trump won big with white voters with no advanced education. I`m not saying anyone here is uneducated, just stating a fact. Also won 53% of white women. I understand the white male thing, living in the Deep South where plant closings and job loss is the norm (and the don`t take my gun thing). Breitbart/White Supremacy/White Identity is a real thing in rural areas and people around here gripe about not being able to fly the Confederate Battle Flag and having every other street renamed Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. But Trump`s win with women surprised me. I`ve heard several different explanations for the white female vote, but none of them really add up. Both sides promised to take care of Veterans (lol) so it really didn`t matter who won to me. The Democrat President had 8 years to help Veterans and it really never got better. What we need is a good old fashioned war to help Veterans and jump start the economy. Maybe we can start a war with Mexico, then we wouldn`t need a silly wall.

That`s what the Polls stated, and we all know how accurate the polls are.

I`m always amused at people distinguishing between "educated" voters. I`ve known some REALLY stupid people that have college diplomas and if you pay attention to what`s going on college campuses across America, I`m not so sure a diploma is necessarily a hard benchmark of intelligence

Not like all dem super educated people who believe the earth is getting warming because of something we are doing , those guys have everything all figured out.

I always considered common sense as the rule over diploma`s.

Amen brother.

Common sense and education don`t necessarily go hand in hand. But try to discuss the Electoral College with someone that doesn`t understand the words Electoral or College. It really shouldn`t take an advanced degree to understand the process for electing a president. But every 4 freaking years it must be explained again. The popular vote should be the way to elect all "elected" officials. Try telling people their vote counts, then say "gotcha", the Electoral College overrides the voters wishes. My wife is from Honduras, one of the most corrupt places on Earth, and when I did my best to explain the Electoral College she just stared at me with disbelief. She went on to question why the Electoral College was in place, my best answer is that the framers of the Constitution did not trust direct Democracy. I got a huge laugh out of the look on her face.

I work with PHDs at the college I work at. Most can`t tie their shoes.

I`m sure everyone in middle America and the South would love being governed by the ruling class in New York and California.

Well I believe in basic civil liberties.. such as someone being able to legally marry someone that they love even if they are the same sex.

Well said, and thankfully, we have the Electoral College to protect us from that.

One of my friends forced me to watch this the other day, made it through 30 sec. or so and couldn`t take any more, and then started to read some of the comments,

I`m not sure what you mean? Both Trump`s and Clinton`s home state was New York. For the record Rudy Giuliani is a nut. I heard Trump want to commute to New York to work as Pres. Not sure how much truth to put in to the rumor. Heard it on The Tonight Show.

I`m old enough to remember segregation. And for the record the Blacks in my town were not happy about giving up their all Black schools. They were forced into segregation just as much as Whites were. In the long run it was a good thing, but people like to think all Blacks were for segregation and all Whites were against it, it was not that cut and dried. Like everything there are shades of gray.

That video of that kid spouting off about Zionists and David Duke makes me ill. He is one of those alt-right nuts. He listens to too much talk radio (showing my age). Before this election I thought we had drove out most of the KKKers. I guess they were hiding in the Republican Party waiting for the right candidate.

Right now joblessness rates are at all time lows, interest rates are low, crime is down, and gas prices are reasonable. It has taken 8 years of work to get to this point. Everything is not perfect and never will be. I`m waiting to see how Trump does or if it will take 8 more years after Trump to make America this great again. Only time will tell.
