AlexH. Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Pence is Cheney 2.0 for sure. The poster child for failing upwards is not going to know how to actually do the job *at all*, so he's definitely going to delegate anything thats's hard or unglamorous to whoever is willing to do it. Pence is willing to put in the sweat on the front end in order to criminalize abortion, round up the gays, and gut every single environmental and worker protection agency. 3 minutes ago, thefavoriteplay said: Talking about ....one....idiot here, are you applying to all Trump supporters? Well, here's a partial summary of day one: https://medium.com/@seanokane/day-1-in-trumps-america-9e4d58381001#.m7uhx3qu7 This is not about "all Trump supporters", it's about one of the central themes of Trump's campaign now bearing fruit. I know a lot of Trump supporters had other reasons for voting for him, or were simply willing to overlook his faults, but a guy who singles out protesters from the podium and explicitly encourages violence, leads chants to "build a wall", states that a judge with Mexican lineage can't be fair to him, repeatedly proposes registration for selected demographics, feels entitled to women's bodies due to his status... blah blah blah, but the point is that people who hold these ideologies now feel empowered to act on them - they saw Trump get gently chided by the mainstream press, #trigger the liberal outrage machine, and cruise into the presidency unscathed! Why should any racist, misogynist or xenophobe hold back when there are clearly no consequences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are violent anti-trump protests that have gone on and continue to go on, do they represent all Hillary supporters? There's video of the black thugs ganging up on the white guy and screaming " thats what you get for voting for trump." People playing knockout games. Trump did not get elected because of "white/mysoginyst/homophobe/islamophobe/white privilege/bigotry." Trump won because internet culture, mass media and entertainment has been going after "normies" for the last couple of years, and we have been told we are some random type of "evil bigot" if we don't share the same opinions of certain minorities. SJW culture got Trump elected along with other factors. Some can say this started with Gamergate. Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stl_ben Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Why don't you try and counter point this particular story instead of the entire site? Do you have a counter source saying that this attack was politically based and not due to a traffic accident like the police and snopes says?

boops_popmarket Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Technically, Obama supporters were also emboldened by his rhetoric. Dn't you remember when, after the election in 2008, minorities felt more comfortable doing shocking and extreme things like engaging in society as equals? stl_ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 All I know is that these protests (riots) against Trump, at least in Portland, are ridiculous. "We don't like who got elected so we're going to smash a bunch of windshields at a car lot!" "We don't like Trump so we're going to block public transit, making the hardworking, poor people of Portland late for their jobs so they get fired." How are these things helping any cause beyond causing mayhem? vinyl addict and Tommy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes you lose and you just have to man up and deal with it. That's what adults do. Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see what the media and general reaction would be like if this happened after Obama got elected - Oh wait about 1% of this happened when Obama got elected and it was because we're racist but also elected a black president.

Bladewillisisdead Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Voting for a black person doesn't immunize you against being racist. Protests/riots are SUPPOSED to be shitty and inconvenient for the people not involved, that's the point. This is not an endorsement, just saying that "but people have to get to work!" is pointless.
