Amen. Leave New York for a few fucking minutes and don’t look at us folks who live between the coasts like sad zoo animals living in a relentless hell where we can’t go see Hamilton on a given Wednesday night or eat at the world’s greatest Korean German fusion farm to table restaurant. That would be a good start.

Queens IS one of the most diverse places on Earth, but isn’t that part of the problem? The majority of Trump voters don’t live in places with dope Ethiopian and Georgian restaurants right next to each other; they live in places where Applebee’s is the hot spot

No one told pollsters or newspeople they were voting Trump because to do so was to be deemed a racist.
The culture had decided this was the case.

If you hire a truly diverse staff of smart people you will have ideological diversity and you will come by it honestly. Seeking out ideological diversity specifically does not work out well. It’s why Bill Kristol has a career.

Maybe your country just doesn’t understand journalism. Your news outlets have political views! Have you guys ever watched the BBC? News is for NEWS! Facts! Not opinions.. Cut the panels crap, just read the stories. Fox started your descent, and you guys just accepted it and started copying it in every form of…

I totally agree that we need more diversity in media, and I totally agree that diversity should mean more than race and gender.

But I disagree about the misguidedness of ideological diversity. If you’re a news organization who wants to inform the entire electorate, your newsroom can’t be 100% left of the political…

We need diversity in who owns the media outlets as well

In Trump’s America, sexy immigrants can stay. Even if they violate their visas.

Anyone else been ill all day? I feel like I have a combination of mono, being left at the altar, and kicked in the groin. Exercise helped. And I’m super proud of myself for only eating ONE pint of Ben and Jerry’s vegan Chunky Monkey.

Seeing as experience is no longer a necessary qualification then I’ll put forth Michelle Obama.

Fuck the Democratic Party for not actually developing a bench. We were choosing between a flawed candidate (at least in terms of public perception — which is all that matters) and a 75 year old guy who mostly identified as socialist.

For the life of me I’ll never understand why the democrats cleared the decks to anoint a candidate who had already failed miserably in 2008 and who revealed herself to be isolated and utterly out of touch with the electorate.

Not too busy, but just didn’t want to:

Came here to say this. Leaving satisfied.

Bernie was a garbage candidate who survived only because the Clinton campaign was too afraid of alienating millennials to do even the slightest negative attack on him.

They got there my friend - they just didn’t vote for Hillary. Trump doubled AA vote that Romney got and got 33% of Hispanic males and 26% of HIspanic women. The Hispanic vote may have actually won Florida for him... think about that.

This is, by far, a better morning after take than the ones over on The Slot that, so far, are only blaming Gary Johnson, Jill Stein, and their voters.

Weren’t you too busy to vote yesterday?

And blame all of my fellow minorities who could get to the polls for Obama but for whatever asinine reason didn’t this time. It sends me into a near panic attack every time I think about how critical this was to everything I hold dear.

The 52% of white women who voted for Trump are the ones that really boggle my mind. I just don’t get it. I should start telling them to shut their mouths and assign them ratings based on looks. Then I can just grab their pussies to shut them up.
