I live in Chicago but do a lot of work throughout Illinois. You don’t have to venture far outside the city before finding lots of “Hillary for Prison” or “Trump that Bitch” signs. There aren’t enough people in the rest of Illinois to offset the Cook County vote, but I had no idea the rest of the rural Midwest would…

Great post. Those who voted for Trump do not make up the majority of this country as Clinton is actually leading in the popular vote by a slim margin. Some of them are probably decent people whose anger is misdirected. We are getting more diverse as a country and Trump and his supporters can’t stop that from…

I understand the anger, but finger pointing and blaming someone like Johnson isn’t going to change anything. We failed to win the rural vote in the Midwest and that has nothing to do with Johnson. We can learn a lot from this election, but fringe third party candidates aren’t going away. We will never know how Johnson…

I understand the anger, but it is misdirected. There is nothing that Donald can do to stop automation, which is a much bigger problem than the loss of factory jobs that just required high school degrees. There’s also that little problem of electing someone who is grossly unqualified to do the job.

Clinton may actually win the popular vote. That means little in end but that will tell you that this is not what a majority of the country wanted. The rural Midwest won this election for Donald. Let’s not let this happen again.

Polls? They did such a great job with this election, right? If you want to feel like you are a vicitm and are a target, go ahead, but it’s silly to think that another candidate would have appealed to the rural midwest when they resoundly rejected anyone with political experience or qualifications.

I doubt it. Sanders wasn’t going to appeal to the rural Midwest either and you know it. They, like you, are angry and just want to be victims. However, their anger is misdirected and you’ve elected someone who isn’t qualified at all to be President. Good for you, but your life isn’t going to get better because of it.

She’s winning the popular vote though. You’d have to find someone who appealed to disenfranchised, rural Midwestern voters that cost her the electoral college. None of these people were voting for an establishment candidate.

So how have you been oppressed by “people like us”? How exactly has your life been effected by being a “target”? Don’t be such a drama queen when there are groups in this country that have actually lawfully been targeted and oppressed against.

You will need fresh water, however. You need that from outside the Pacific region.

That map is off. Please include Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania in Dumbfuckistan. Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado are welcome in America.

Clinton is winning the popular vote as I type this. If you want to blame her for being a horrible candidate, go ahead. However, she beat him in three debates and had a better convention than Trump. She had a great ground game in place and a huge edge in money, but none of that matter. This was a resounding vote by the…

I live in Chicago but the rest of Illinois and the Midwest is aligned with Trump’s ideology. I do a lot of work throughout Illinois and you don’t have to get far outside of the Chicago area before you start seeing “Hillary for Prison” or “Trump That Bitch” signs in the rural communities. I honestly thought there…

These things are all real. But 59 million people (and counting) voted for Clinton. She has a slight lead in the popular vote so this was not as emphatic a victory as the electoral college will make it look.

White women obviously don’t care either.

I agree. We have time to regroup and come back even stronger in the coming years. The country is getting more diverse as time goes on and there is nothing Trump and his supporters can do to stop it. This was really their last stand.

Trump can also reach out and grab as many pussies as he wants now. And isn’t Baron up past his bedtime?

BS. Obama has an approval rating above 50% in spite of the fact that Congress was NEVER willing to work with him and this country is absurdly divided. He’s a decent, kind, smart hardworking man that I’m proud to call my President.

Millions of people didn’t read that article. Do you honestly think that prompted people from rural Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania to vote in absurd margins for Trump?

Just grab them by the Florida.
