No all trump is doing is showing that there are many uneducated bigoted idiots out there who are allowed to vote, and that republicans did a good job of voter suppression in key states.

It's important to understand why Trump is doing well, and it's not just uneducated racism. There's a pretty big rural vs urban dynamic at play here.


The standard Hillary lost because 50% of the US population is stupid argument, standard. =/

actually, it's more like 85-90% of the us population is stupid.
trump just got a higher proportion of the stupid vote this time.


I guess stupid is all relative.

partially relative, partially absolute. even on an absolute scale one can make a decent case for it.
on a relative it's of course very easy to make the case for it.

this election just makes it all the easier to prove the point of course, given how well documentedly unfit clinton is.



Fixed that for you man ;D

don't be an idiot. the two are not equivalent, and your claims to the contrary merely demonstrate your inability to tell the difference.
and replacing one with the other doens't make you right, nor me wrong. it just means you're unable to actually look at issues in a decent fashion.


I'm not the one being an idiot here lol

There is a huge difference between the two and unless you're a criminal, a briber with millions at stake, or an illegal immigrant, one is objectively better than the other


As if there was the slightest objectivity involved in this election.

N.C. is extremly likely to be won by Trump.

Now it is Michigan, whoever wins here... and freaking Wisconson.

I can see Michigan going back looking at what's still left out there... Wisconsin looking a bit more scary for me
Though most people, like posts on 538 livefeed, seem to suggest Michigan is the more critical one

I think he has issues with the classic conservatives in Wisconsin due to his attacks on Ryan. His strength seems to be predicated on getting blue collar whites to the polls, so the map is gonna be wonky.

NYTimes just crushed the 70% mark for Trump, with 269 (thanks house) to over 280 electorials, but clinton being at +2 in popular.

I still think Trump can even out the popular vote.

I might be stupid, so I dunno, but I've made my arguments here very clear many times about why I think Hillary is an awful person and why she shouldn't be president. So while you might think that Trump is unfit, I think than Hillary is unfit, so there we are.

I agree Hillary is an awful person. I think both are unfit to be president. I just think Trump's inexperience and a tendency for irrational outbursts is more disqualifying than Clinton being awful and corrupt.

But we've had this discussion before so I guess it's not really worth carrying forward. We're both aware of the candidates' flaws, we just disagree on how important they are, and that's really hard to argue definitively.

You should strongly consider you're the one incapable of recognizing it

I haven't made any false claims to be disproven so I don't know what fantasyland you're living in

Everything I've predicted months ago is coming true and everyone is waking up out of fantasyland now upset that reality doesn't match the coolaid they've been drinking this election
