The next argument you make will be the first.

I mean, you have to be either seriously deluded or simply stupid to buy that ticket.

As for "red states": blue states subsidize them. Another inconvenient fact. Why do you think that is?
Per the bolded --- If you are seriously asking that question, then you live a sheltered life. Try visiting AZ and FL --- there are many trailer parks that are for the 55+ community. If you were to drive through these communities, you will see that the homes and the property are well-maintained. My Dad, who has a professional degree and is a retired government employee, lived for a time in such a trailer park.

Then you go with that tired, despicable rant about how everybody who voted for Trump is "uneducated". You really don't get out much, do you? There are many of us who are college-educated and even some of us who are minorities that voted for Trump.

Yes, if they just stop reproducing, that will solve all your butt hurt. Let me guess, the next step is to round them up and exterminate them....

Libs are all about social engineering. A hop and a skip away from exemplifying Nazi values. Sickos, many of you are.

How about you leave American workers alone and stop belittling us. And stop belittling people who are happy with their comfy trailer park lives. Not everyone is as privileged as you. Be grateful for what you have, not angry.

And once again: why should working-class white people have voted for Clinton? And this time list policies and make a real argument, instead of just an angry rant.
Nope, you simply can't handle the fact that I grew up not only "working class," but poor. Can't handle it, so you choose not to believe it. Go ahead, believe what you want. Makes little difference to me. And I'm certainly not going to spend a significant amount of my time explaining about Clinton. That would simply be idiotic, given that you'd shoot down, on principle, anything I had to say. So again, we're done here.

Translation, they're calling me out.

First of all, what is your obsession with "butt" things? It's kind of weird, dude.

But, oh yes, you got it. Right on the money. Yep, want to round up all the working class folk, including my family, and exterminate them. Yep, it's all about the "Nazi values."

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is Exhibit A for why marijuana should not be legal.
Okay. Working-class people are idiots for voting for Donald Trump. But why should they have voted against Trump? It would be idiotic to explain. You know what, your trenchant arguments have convinced me: I'm going to become a life-long Democrat.

No you aren't. Liberals are far more tolerant of the beliefs of others than you are.

I wasn't talking about that type of trailer park, and you know it.

Can't help it if you're college-educated, and a minority, and still voted for a dangerous sociopath.
