[No War, but the War on Christmas]

So yeah, tbf I've tried to dive more into being less hackish / more analytical since then.

[No War, but the War on Christmas]

After hearing Trump talk about women the way he did, I just really didn't think Americans would be dumb enough to elect him. Or gross enough.

Silly me.

A lot of auto workers in Michigan, Wisconsin etc and the poorest in the nation don’t care about the way Trump spoke about women, but care about change, rather than a third term of Obama, who has done absolutely nothing for them.

Besides rescuing the auto industry from collapse and turning around all three automakers into making a profit by the end of his first time? I can't even imagine what the Great Recession would've been like under this President's feckless leadership.

Those same auto workers voted for Obama by large margins, by the way.

What about George Bush using $18 billion worth of TARP money to keep General Motors and Chrysler afloat?

So now we're going to credit George Bush with the recovery for a recession that began under his watch, arguably due to many deregulatory policies under his administration and which only came to an end in the second half of Obama's term thanks to his administration's steady leadership and ownership of the state shares in the auto industry.

Okayyy.

What about George W. Bush using $18 billion worth of TARP money to keep General Motors and Chrysler afloat? Does that have nothing to do with it? Trump has not kept his promises to these people but during the campaign he actually chose to visit Wisconsin, unlike Hillary Clinton. His win wasn’t because of sexism and or racism, but because of the people he spoke to. I’m sick and tired of hearing the “omg trump hates women how can people vote for him” shtick.

This pretty much sums up how I feel about that.

I’m an atheist gay man with Pakistani descent. Don’t you dare call me a homophobic, racist bible thumper.

Most convicts vote Democratic. You sick criminal. https://mic.com/articles/78013/most-convicts-vote-democrat-study-shows

No. I do not like Trump, I personally supported John Kasich but calling the other side racist will not make you win.



By the way, could we move this to DMs or something? I don’t want to derail this thread.

I genuinely wasn't referring to you personally, - just the idea that auto workers somehow voted for Trump because their concerns weren't 'being addressed' which is ridiculous and I hear it too much.

But yeah, that'd be fine. I agree.
