    And Trump needs to step up early now. He needs to come out and flat out say something to the tune of: "I have heard what people have said about me with regards to race. I am making it abundantly clear that racism of any form will not be tolerated by me. If you are in a position of power and exhibit any sort of racism you will be removed from your post. If you are at a speaking engagement of mine and are heard shouting offensive things, you will be removed. That is not who I am, that is not the country I want and it ends now".
    Yes he does. That would calm a lot of the uneasy feelings people have about him. He did his flip-floppy populism Lonesome Rhodes thang to get elected. Cool. Now it's time to cut the bull and tell us what you're really about.

    Damn. Hoping you'd take the under. I actually think the Lakers win something like 38 games.

    Can't do it. I think they improve.

    What do you see D'Bust shooting for the season?
    Alright, meet you half way and take 37 or under.

    I agree. Then the extra kicker was trotting out Hillary whom literally represents that negative of that exact sentiment.
    And they can't stand the Clinton dynasty. Remember, it was Bill who signed NAFTA, which they blame for the loss of the manufacturing sector.

    It indeed was, but that's the way the economy was headed since Japan woke everyone's ass up in the 80's. For American auto manufacturers to stay compe ive, they could no longer have whole towns making 30.00 per hour on the line. It sucks. But that's the reality.

    Very true. There is, as always, a lot of depth to this.

    Shocking. Racist group that already existed before Trump is celebrating a black president they hated leaving. Shocking.

    The way they report it they would have you believe he's at the front beating the drums.

    ^ like I said, never happened.

    If you want to see how a bet is actually consummated here on ST, look at Mid and I a few minutes ago.

    If you want proof that I pay my debts, ask Mid, Apa, and a host of others.

    Were those demographics living in swing states? Here in Cali, I could see a lot minority voters just saying " it, I ain't waiting in now 3 hour line. Trump can't win California anyway, so it doesn't matter."

    I also read that record numbers of voters were coming out in certain counties in the Rust Belt, even if they number of overall voters nationwide was down.
    No clue. Those numbers are just aggregates.

    I call bull on most of that.
    The alt-right has been fawning over Trump and view his election as vindication and an indication their time has come.

    Former Ku Klux Klan leader and US alt-right hail election result
    David Duke says ‘our people’ played huge role in outcome, and pro-Trump author invites Clinton supporters to ‘cry more’

    Members of America’s alt-right reacted with glee to the news of Trump’s victory. The provocative conservative movement, largely active online, has been closely associated with Trump’s campaign.

    “We just blew up the Death Star!” tweeted the rightwing radio presenter Alex Jones. He later retweeted an image from the Wizard of Oz showing the Wicked Witch of the East flattened by a house, with the caption: “BREAKING video of #Hillary shows why she can’t make a concession speech to President Trump.”

    Michael Savage, a shock jock who was banned from entering the UK in 2009 as he was considered “likely to cause inter-community tension or even violence”, posted on his Facebook page the message “WE DID IT”, alongside an image reading: “Scorched earth. Restoring the country after Obama.”

    ..
    Richard Spencer, who is president of the white nationalist National Policy Ins ute, tweeted “The Saxon has awoken” and “The alt-right just won!”

    Mark Dice, another prominent alt-right figure who describes himself as a media analyst, wrote: “I want to thank all of my fans for amplifying my voice during this campaign and helping to elect #PresidentTrump! We did it!”

    I have already personally seen at least one incident, some white guy yelling some at a group of Mexican construction workers in a grocery store parking lot.

    The trend will be fairly clear. People with that kind of viewpoint now very obviously feel vindicated.

    Not So Extreme Futures
    So, yes, racists are racist. And the idea of Donald Trump spouting full-blown alt-right rhetoric (versus some loud-and-clear dogwhistles) still seems somewhat farfetched. But Taylor is right about one thing: “For the next four years, these ideas will have to be discussed with much more openness, and frankness.” Because the alt-right’s talking points—Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, misogyny, and racism—are crucial motivators for many people who bore Trump to office.
    The consequences of having those ideas percolating through the national discourse are already being felt on a person-to-person level. “Kids*have been catching because other kids’ parents say, ‘We’re against political correctness,'” says Painter. “That means you can act on your hatred.” It’s not just anecdotal: the Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks extremist groups, says hate crimes, domestic terrorism rates,*and hate group membership have all risen over the past two years.

    , almost everyone that voted for Trump said they didn't like or trust him. He didn't empower anyone. He was just the anti-Hillary and that's why he won.

    He was the message, not the hope.
    I disagree, Trump won because his message connected with most Amercian's, Hillary was the alternative and she is corrupt as , unlikeable and a liar. Also a Trump vote was a satisfying "F bomb" to all the establishment elites in Washington D.C. dragging this country down putting special interests first before the people. I do think people voted for him as he offers hope for a more promising America.

    Can't entirely disagree. I wouldn't simplify it too much though. Plenty of reasons piled up on top of each other, I would guess.
