I've noticed that people living at the poverty level usually don't vote. Call it what you want, white trash, ghetto, etc, they don't vote.

I keep wondering
how in the world does this guy have 35% support
are there really that many people in this country that think this way? im totally amazed
that's 3 to 4 people out of 10

I find that incredible

it was already incredible that he got support in the first place, but now after all this time and all these fuck ups he still has support

im actually a social person by nature, but I find myself becoming more and more anti social because of politics

if you voted for trump and have buyers remorse, I can forgive you for having a lapse in judgment no matter how ignorant..... but to still support him after all that's come out, I cant get passed that!

to those who still beat the I hate Hillary drum
give me a fucking break, if even half what the said was true she would still be a better option than trump and Ray Charles could see that

The enemy of my enemy is my friend? They love the fact that liberals despise Trump to the max. Even his supporters know he's a liar. Examples are everywhere -- on video! Deception is a reflex for him.

good people don't march along side people carrying neo Nazi hate and racism. period end of story

good people beat there fucking asses because they have it coming!

if your white and want to support your heritage find some part of your heritage to be proud of, don't find the darkest part of your heritage and act like its something to be proud of

if you have issues with peeps of minority getting a leg up over you (college admittance or what ever) and you want to debate the fairness of it that's fine but don't step on other people to get your leg up

demand equality as a human being not as a "white man"

people a fucking stupid and the politicians count on it

take abortion for example;

trump will stand up and say hes against abortion just because he knows a large % of people will vote for him just on the one issue
he could rape the pope in the ass on public tv and they'll still vote for him cuz hes the candidate who claims to be against abortion (even if hes not)
that's why he said that shit about punishing woman ....

maybe your against abortion , maybe your not!

but heres the thing... I don't matter which mother fucker you vote for, they aint changing the law so stop letting them manipulate you with it

When white Americans were asked if African Americans experience a lot of discrimination in the US, half said no. Among evangelical Christians, 60% said "no". *

When African Americans were asked, 85% said yes. I'm wondering what is wrong with the 15%. But whatever.

Younger people, people who have gone to college, women all have higher awareness of prejudice. White men answered "no" prejudice 57% of the time.

There are a lot people who deny racism exists even though objective evidence says it does. Most definitely.

The only answer is to improve education. Even then, education only increase the number with higher awareness by about 10%-15%. I think you are on to something when you mention tribal awareness. Also, people don't want to consider the fact that they have it better due to an accident of birth. Usually, they are in fact not doing all that well. They want to tell you about their hardships. I can't help but wonder about these people. If they can't succeed with all the privilege, imagine how dire their situation would be in the face of systematic prejudice?

*This from a Public Religion Research Institute survey published 6/21/17
As an old man who has worked for several of the top 10 businesses for many years I have seen very few blacks in the electronics field. But I have worked with many racists. I just listen. It's good to know who you can trust. After retirement I have stayed in contact with 2 ex techs I worked with. One black and one white. The only two I would trust with my life.

Publicly opposing abortion earned Trump one of the tickets needed to get a seat at the conservative mad hatters tea party. Christian evangelicals even talk of their faith being "under siege" and "Trump fights for us. Jimmy Carter who was one of us didn't"

“We are being discriminated against. There is an anti-Christian movement in the culture,” Fr. Paul Grant, a priest with the Catholic Information Center in Washington, told me after Vice President Mike Pence addressed the Faith and Freedom gathering on Saturday night. “The devil is using his tools to keep us out of the public square.”

These people aren't dumb. They are deluded.

Half of my relatives voted for Trump. It's weird.
I can resist the urge to post political stuff on facebook, but I have a hard time reading breitbart BS from my brother-in-law without saying something. Usually what I have to say isn't very nice.
This is a guy who criticized Obama every time he played golf or took a vacation, but now it's peachy.
I've known him for 30 years and now I'm really starting to dislike him.
It is sad.
Lost my best friend from high school the same way about five years ago. We were like Beavis & Butthead back in the day -- and now we don't speak.
I don't like what is happening in my own little world, and I get the feeling this is happening everywhere. :-(
It is happening everywhere... I live in a very conservative area. Its always been an unwritten rule socially that its not talking politics in public if its a slam against liberals, but I was the one being a dick if I even defended a stance. I've always somewhat let that happen except maybe right during elections. Well no fucking more! I am not silent anymore when it gets mentioned I don't hold back. But I try keeping my cool and use reason, as we must win back the hearts and minds...

How isn't it? A minimum of 90% of Blacks whom make up only 13% of the population don't vote republican so how many do you actually expect to show up?
I expect all people to respond to activites that promote their own self interest. Dems earned the vote of minorities through action. blacks aren't tethered to any affiliation. Trump's maga slogan itself refers to racist nostalgia. He draws about zero blacks because of his appalling history of racism, his support for racist organizations, his fear of alienating his core supporters who are plainly motivated by white power ideology.

Ya in my close family we have no trump supporters but weve got some racists.

With the trump blind faith phenomenon i think it has to do with some primal, tribal race factors. Like limbic level need to prove ole bone spurs is gonna out perform black dude obama. A lil like McCracker vs. Mayweather. They arent in the same sport, same league or same class.

Its also pitiable since trump is hobbled by isolation, privilege and psychological afflictions. He`s outclassed by obama along most any metric. Still i wonder if a deep seated dread and refusal to accept reality inactivates doubt, skepticism, critical thought.
The blind faith element I beleive is that trump was able to manipulate masses in a religous like fervor. I once during campaign read an article i searched for on cult leaders, it was a non political article written before the campaign begun from phycology today. It listed 50 signs of a cult leader and in my opinion he fit 48 of them. These people have a skill or knack to pull people into their spell.

One of the most striking ones was leading followers to a state of isolation to where the leader is the sole source of truth... Think about this, he has turned anyone who disagrees into an untrusted enemy, anyone who doesn't go along is evil for opposing him, literally every unflattering story is "Fake News".... So once people have been lead into this it is tough to get them out, as they truly trust no one but the leader.

It is truly scary this man has the hearts and minds of a 1/3 of our country...
