Are you talking about the MSM showing the deplorables in Charlottesville? I have relatives that claim they are proud deplorables. When I ask if they are members of the KKK, Neo-Nazies, or White Supremacists they say no. Those are the real Trump deplorables. Are you one?

In hindsight it's obvious that voters supported Obamas' hope and change because they were reacting to Dubya. Obama represented something new. Then, after 8 yrs of Obama, America wanted something new again, and Hillary wasn't that. She was something old ... AND she was a woman. That was a factor.

If you don't see that race and gender isn't a major factor you're as blind as the liberals.

The media gave Trump so much free coverage and publicity it was a sickening ripoff.

She won with over 3 million voters.

As I stated, I wasn't for her or Trump. There were many factors against her winning, like Assange and Comey. And as bad as she would have been I doubt the KKK, Neo-Nazies, and White Supremacists would have been marching in Charlottesville ... and I doubt we'd be having this battle of the egos with little Kim Jong Un, and the possibility of nukes flying..
