The libtards think that is a map of how counties voted. It is actually a map of counties
that have a majority of people who pay income tax, red being the payers.

Then why is it that the red states always take more dollars from the federal government than they pay in?

Political parties and the various groups tied to them have become the new modern hate groups. La raza, black lives matters, and the david duke kkk are all very sililar in their belief of racial superiority. It's not s good sign that they are all openly allied or trying to be allied with mainstream political parties that are supposed to be representing moderate americans

Lastly, upthread you mentioned American voters wanting a change. I'd say this is a very typical American-political theme, going back to the dawn of the republic; nothing new at all. Change for the sake of change.
I think that's one of the key things that polling did not capture. There is a "reversal to the mean" tendency in American presidential politics. When one party has been in the White House for 8 years, there is some fairly strong momentum for the other party. Just because...

One KKK march does not equal the anti-Trump outbursts we've seen for at least the following reasons:
I didn't say it did.
I am opposed to the destructiveness of some of the protesters. It doesn't get their point across. I was at the march in LA on saturday. There were 10,000 people, and 5 people were arrested.
I digress however, some of the people protesting trump are facing a major upheaval in their lives if his policies are implemented, so no wonder that they are upset.
You know conservatives try to link democrats to the KKK. Ask yourself though what was the party affiliation of the whites who marched with Martin Luther King Jr. At one point dems were part of the KKK, but I don't think one can doubt that in today's society, the vast majority of whites who dislike blacks are republicans. We have a couple of examples right here on this forum, bluering, jody, and wendell, aka tgt.
Edit: Dingus, you know what I meant. If you don't, I will 'splain it for you.
This country is not Jody's, although I am pretty sure that he wants the makeup of the population to have his skin tone, believe in god, and dislike gays.

3. By and large, the hate groups alleged to be right-wing (e.g. Nazis, KKK, etc.) face explicit condemnation by Republicans, conservatives, and the media.
Not anymore. With Trump and Bannon, republican acquiescence to racism has been the rule.

One of the observations i'm walking away with from this whole clusterf*#k is that most of the people that voted for Drumpf because of promises made to bring jobs back. The coal industry, for instance. But the truth is nothing will bring those jobs back. Nothing. Couple a finite resource with an exponentially growing population and then mix in advancements in technology that automate many things right now and you can end it there. Ice the cake with very inexpensive energy sources - be that fracking or solar - and it's a dead industry.
The Coal Jobs won't return
He won't clean out Washington (though I'll rally behind him if he really pushes his terms limits agenda [not happening] and I might even like the guy if he manages to get Citizens United overturned and outlaws gerrymandering)
It's not a wall, it's a fence - and the US is paying for it if the chain link even happens.
There will be no deportations

Whatever he promised, as Michale Moore pointed out, these people have been passed by. By both parties. Even if it is disingenuous of Trump to say that he could bring jobs back, is was also a mistake on Hillary's part to go to Penn. and say she would close coal mines. What kind of ridiculous mistake is that? And what did she plan to do for those who she callously overlooked? We have some serious problems in this country and if we don't want more Trump candidates, we better start figuring them out.

This was on the internet. No doubt, it's accurate.
The few honest MSM reporters have been reduced to leaking info to new media people because their corporate bosses won’t let them report it.A friend at CNN says Clintonland reports Hillary was in a “psychotic, drunken rage” election night; needed hardcore meds to speak Wednesday.CNN reporter tells me Hillary became physically violent towards Robby Mook and John Podesta around midnight; had to be briefly restrained. Hillary on election night was straight-up Hitler-in-the-bunker sh#t. It even included psychotic screaming about “the Russians.” The doctor helped restrain Hillary when she violently attacked Mook and Podesta at midnight. Gave sedatives, then amphetamines next morning. CNN reporter says Hillary needed so many amphetamines Wed morning she had unexpected nosebleeds all day. Fear was she’d bleed at concession...
0100hrs podesta told her she had to address her followers she (drunk as a skunk) (allegedly) said: “f*#k them – you do it”

You know nothing.
More examples of what Jody considers "facts."

As I have stated before, Jody always responds with an ad hominem attack.
That's a good christian response.
