Isn’t he essentially POTUS now?

Is it a rule change? The electoral college votes to correct for mob rule from what I have gathered recently....

I fear what happens when the haters realize there isn’t going to be a wall.

That’s what an experienced public figure looks like (vs Trump looking lost at the White House today)

Considering hate was a major part of the change Trump supporters wanted, it’s not really a lock that Biden or Warren or Sanders could have fired up their side in enough numbers to overcome.

Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren were the best bets. Biden would probably have wiped the floor w Trump since he wouldn’t have been on the defensive .... plus never discount the power of humour or a well placed quotable zinger.

Clinton failed to articulate Obama’s economic recovery and how she would build on it for JOBS.

Not like Trump had one either

She needed to tack left when she got the Nom. Moving to the right to try and hoover up centrists republicans is what did her in.

It’s a failure of the American education system that people think they are voting for drinking buddies instead of platforms, and it threatens the practise of democracy.

Except does anyone actually LIKE Trump?

They could stay home in protest bc they could afford to risk racist groups becoming emboldened and validated. They could gamble that the candidate with no platform might miraculously create jobs bc their homes and businesses won’t get vandalized and their kids won’t be harassed or heaven forbid jumped.

Billionaires who don’t pay taxes.... no one see the dig Bernie built in?

It must be nice to be able to gamble on a racist not meaning what he said (bc if he does or if he riles up other racists it really doesn’t effect your life) in protest of politics as usual.

The majority of the western world and China all disagree. Have you looked at the makeup of the G7 or G20?

I never understood the privelege of privilege (not really), until I realized ppl I know would abstain or write in or even take a chance on Trump bc the racism/misogyny really isn’t something they have to fear personally :(

Candidate A - no platform, says jobs a lot and mainly focusses on being racist

And that half of the country doesn’t include non-whites? Really it does.

Right? We are literal hostages come US Election Day. “When America sneezes, Canada gets a cold.”

Taking the high road and expressing your feelings w a well placed boo or two are not necessarily mutually exclusive.
