Who exactly told you $3M a day? Link? |
Exactly. |
I'm always interested in the focus on race. I know in my life people of different races. We're good. The race thing mainly seems to be important when talking politics. |
Not buying a word of what? That people can, and do, change their political affiliation when they see that they just don't have much in common with a certain party? I grew up in a family of Democrats. Always voted for the Democratic candidate. Until a few years ago, when I realized the Democratic party, by and large, had morphed into something unrecognizable. Safe spaces? Trigger warnings? Calling those who disagreed with them, "racists, xenophobes, and sexist"? No thanks. I decided I was tired of being told what to think and what to say. It's no surprise to me at all that the Democrats lost the election. They've gone for too long thinking their way was the only way, and that half the country was simply stupid. When you start thinking you're superior to others, you should really expect that things aren't going to continue going your way any longer. |
And I think there are a lot of people who don't consider themselves either Democrats or Republicans. I would have voted for an Independent candidate, had there been a viable option. There is a huge gray area that some of you don't want to acknowledge. Just because someone voted for Trump/Clinton, doesn't mean they necessarily identify as a Rep/Dem. I certainly don't consider the Republican party to be the "White Power" party. What a stupid statement. |
What do you call the party that courted the "White Power" voters who are now celebrating the Trump victory? Why aren't the leaders of the GOP stepping up and speaking out? |
Of course I believe people can change party affiliation, but you are either crazy or a paid poster. Your writing style is quite distinct. |
Sounds good
|
Not the PP. I you mean his/her writing style is intelligent and therefore distinct, I can agree with you. What you are seeing in the post above is the words of someone who was well-raised and who is a critical thinker. I know that's hard for progressives to understand as they need compliance. |

I wasn't saying the Republicans are predominantly a White Power party -- i.e., a party made up mostly of people who believe in White Power. But right now, almost everyone who believes in White Power voted for Trump, and Trump is doing a terrible job of making those people feel unwelcome, so you have to figure he wants them.
I mean, what do the mon White Power people who voted for Trump think he should do about the people who are making racist and anti-Muslim threats in his name? Like the teacher who harangued a first grade Muslim boy about not being welcome here anymore now that Trump won? Or Southern Poverty Law Center's reports that there has been a severe increase in intimidation of minorities since the election and over 500 incidents reported. Do you think Trump is doing enough to discourage this behavior? |
| non White Power, not mon White Power |
Sock puppeting |
NP: couldn't agree more! |
and stereotyping black males, too He's a great Clinton supporter! |
You have no idea what critical thinking means. You should ask Trump U for a refund. |
