But the actual numbers of black people were much lower. It’s not that they voted for Trump, they just didn’t come out and I bet that made a difference is a few close states.

That money could go building an actual entertainment district where the CITY not some billionaire gets the revenue. Pretty much every study that wasn’t funded by a team shows no positive economic impact to building a billion dollar stadium for an owner, especially when said owner will argue that 15-20 years from now…
“They would just have some other project that would use up the .5 cent sales tax”
Or they could have gotten rid of what was supposed to be a temporary tax entirely so we could keep our money. Let another city pay for it. I would like to keep my cash.
The point is that taxpayers are paying for it instead of the two billionaires that own the Rangers and retain all the profits. Of course air conditioning would be great in Texas in July. The taxpayers shouldn’t be buying the building and AC units.
Let me spell this out for you: Trump voters never cared about facts.
In Florida, something like 70% of Cubans voted for Trump, while all other Hispanics were strongly against him.
Sure, but what percentage of US hispanics are cubans or of cuban descent? Even if you correct for Cuban Republicans the number seems pretty staggering based on Trump’s stated policy positions.
I will blame the “common man” because I am the common man. Despite what right wing propoganda might have you think, you don’t have to drive a pick up, work on a farm or haul lumber all day to be the common man. I work a 40 hour week,pay my taxes and my bills, same as anyone else. Yet I knew that Donald Trump was a…
Unfortunately, your expectations for the average US citizen is far too high. Candidates DO need to spoon feed many people. Particularly the less educated, more financially desperate people who feel like they are not represented by anyone in DC. “Grow the fuck up” is not a productive response, as tempting as it is.…
The one that gets me 45 percent of college-educated white women voted for him. That is the demographic Hillary should have owned.
This Florida Man (specifically an Orlando Man) completely agrees. When an elementary school got shot up and we did nothing, that showed me that we never will and we might as well drop it. At this point, there are people who would otherwise vote for Democrats who won’t because of guns. Knowing that the status quo won’t…
They were begging for a reason not to vote for Trump
29 was the number I last saw. Either way, I am fucking flabbergasted.
I dunno man. HRC lost by about 1% in Florida, Michigan, New Hampshire, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Those are all huge gun-owning states. Pissing on their heads and telling them it was rain was probably not the right thing to do.
A whole hell of a lot of women violently hate other women. And they don’t care when other women are sexually assaulted,if they don’t actively route for it, because they know sexual assault only happens to bad women who deserve it, so they’re safe AND dirty whores get what’s coming to them. It’s a win-win.
As far as X’s and O’s, blocking and tackling is concerned, why we liberals keep fighting tooth and nail for gun control? I can’t think of a more suicidal electoral policy to pursue. Of course, it’s the morally correct thing to do, since guns are an abomination, but it is political suicide. It loses us huge swaths…
I’m surprised I haven’t seen any Democrats issuing hot takes blaming Fidel Castro yet since that difference in Florida was all Cubans.
*Walks into ballot box*
Don’t listen to him Barry. Today I’ll take all the stories I can get about stadium funding, Tim Tebow, good dogs, massive dongs, misbehaving sports stars, etc, etc. Anything other than, you know...
