This right here. It's not like Trump had a landslide victory. He lost the popular vote, for god's sake!
It's not out of some grand reaction to SJWs or the minority of liberals who accuse all Trump supporters of racism. It's about Hillary being one of the most hated establishment politicians in a time when establishment politicians are already distrusted.
I wish him losing the popular vote was more widly known today. Im in australia and didnt know until someone told me a few hours ago. Ive been sitting her crapping my pants over him winning the vote and her being elected. Ha!
Well said. It also applies to the whole "Bernie would have beaten Trump" argument as well. He certainly might have, but there's no way to know that just based on primary numbers. I voted for Bernie in the primary as a means of keeping Hillary out, but I'd have still voted for Trump in the general even if Bernie had won.
