The notion that a professional, educated individual in 21st century America can literally have NO friends that think politically differently from him is one of the more bizarre things I can imagine. Seems rather boring as well.


I have friends that think VERY different than me. I have anarchist, communist, socialist, and old school democrats. I had a bunch of friends vote for johnson or stein. I know quite a few republicans, but they were all nevertrumpers.

They just didn't support trump, or lied to me about it. Which is completely possible.

I am the one that is very different than my friends TBH.

Yeah they were openly laughing at and lampooning 'uneducated white men'. Again and again. Uhhh... guys... there are a LOT of them, and they vote, and they live in states you need to win, and they used to vote for YOU. They're so crazily into all this SJW, LGBTQ, 3rd wave feminism, yay for Muslims, open borders stuff that they totally forgot about their former BASE of support.

Interesting as I don't know what else to say.

Is this in reference to HRC's defense of Bill and her attacking his female accusers or the groping charges against Trump. Whichever I disagree here.

They are failing the country. Its a damn shame.

I believe they have ideas to give away free stuff to obtain more voters.

I also learned a few things like that the polls were mostly wrong. I personally think it was the likely voter model that got it wrong


Disagree very strongly here. They lie to shape opinion and turnout. They are bought and paid for (many not all)

I know that's equally bizarre. Plus, at least for the few I saw say that, I didn't trust their educated processional credentials as much as I do Hawkeye's. That was a rather key component of my point.

And they still don't get it with all their "white lash" and f@cking white male bs. Every tweet & post is proof they don't understand how badly they've miscalculated.


They're going to be completely fricked if after Trump, a well thought of Republican woman gets the nomination.

Democrats have been operating under the assumption that their current demographic breakdown will go on forever and therefore, they just have to wait for whites to become a smaller and smaller percentage.

I've always chuckled at this. That's just now how politics work. They're so busy going basically on record as anti-white........they might want to do a recount of demographics in America.

Do they think they'll get the vote they've been getting forever?

Do they think that whites will NEVER notice that minority liberals hate white liberals too?

Yeah. OK. Go with that.

free stuff only works with a subset of the population. I am not particularly interested in free stuff. Nor do I think most of my friends that voted for clinton were looking for free stuff.

I guarantee you know more. They just didn't want to tell you and have to put up with the harassment.

2. Hillary clinton is extremely unlikeable. While she got more votes than DJT, she under performed romney and lost key solid democratic states.


She also failed to overwhelming win the female vote and Trump really outperformed Romney with Latinos.

3. We have a culture where sexual assault, even in jest or light hearted manner, is acceptable to a large segment of the population.


Know who made it acceptable for the POTUS to behave in an unacceptable fashion and commit at the very least blatant acts of sexual harassment? William Jefferson Clinton.

Hillary couldn't hammer Trump because her husband spent his White House years getting BJs from and using cigars as dildos on a 19 year old intern in the oval office.

Yes, but this isn't really news

5. My friends are easily upset and prone to going off on tirades


Pick better friends

Congrats on that bit if self-realization. I doubt they'll do it because they've been overrun by far-left special interest groups.

Where they help do you live and how are you an LSU fan yet you don't know any Trump supporters?

I've been saying it all election, why would any straight white person ever support the democrats? What on earth do they offer you? All the cater to is the black vote, Mexican vote, criminal vote, LGBTQ vote while completely ignoring SEVENTY percent of the country!

Even in that case he would interact with others in society who have differing views.
Half of this country voted for Trump.
It's statistically impossible not to know multiple Trump supporters.

I only know a handful of enthusiastic clinton supporters. Most voted for her b.c they didn't like trump.
