On the plus side, weed is legal in more states now and I believe 4 more approved mmj. Prohibition is slowly dying.

it's funny that you're embarrassed to say you're American. You're also making the false assumption that I'm embarrassed. suuuuure

I think that people are crying over milk that hasn't spilled. I'm not convinced that it will, or won't. I am not afraid of this. If he does one thing right, let it be help fix our government.

You gotta be kidding. I really never know if your statements are part of an elaborate character you play in political/current event discussions or it's the real deal. Either way it seems as though you have a tentative grasp on politics and can rarely defend your position when actually challenged without resorting to lol or a half-baked version of something you heard in Poli Sci 101.

I don't think you know how to separate the two terms liberal and democrat.

It's ok most Americans don't know how to either. They also can't recite the Bill of Rights or identify the Constitution from the Declaration of Independence.
That's how we ended up here.
A country wide rage like understanding of Civics, Government and basic US History.

It's both actually, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush2, and all those who pushed the neoliberal agenda, creating a vast class of redundant American workers.

And by recently do you mean the 60s when Nixon appealed to their racist sensibilities in the South? Or recently as in when they were decimated by Reagan's economic policies that has effectively eliminated them as a mobilized class of citizens?
Either way you said it was the liberals who created this voting base, which is incorrect and goes back to my point of saying Dems and Liberals are not one in the same.
George Wallace the outwardly racist/segregationist governor of Alabama was a demmicrat. So was the entirety of the south until the 60's. It certainly was not what I'd call a region that instilled liberal principles.

Trump got 59,611,678 votes which was less than Mitt Romney at 60,933,504. The problem with this election was that nobody came out to vote for Hillary.

It's both actually, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush2, and all those who pushed the neoliberal agenda, creating a vast class of redundant American workers. Corporate tax breaks and the treatment of them as individuals. Killed industry, unions and widened the wealth gap to an irrecoverable level. All under the guise of free trade.

My guess is Trump pulled a whole new sect out of the woodwork. The totally disenfranchised. Obama banked on the youth vote and minorities many of whom did not vote Clinton.
