So house, senate & White House? Time to get to work right away. Fix healthcare, secure our borders, rebuild our military, lower our taxes, appoint constitutional justices. I'm optimistic. Meanwhile CNN is losing its mind
I couldn't have said it better. It's time to get to work.
I do believe that MANY of Trump's supporters turn a blind eye to his sexism and racism. Does that make them racist? No, not necessarily but I think they are guilty by association.
There is a lot of white anger that fueled the Trump campaign who believe that their "birthright" was being stolen from them by brown people.
I still think it was a small percentage of backwoods rednecks.
The majority was simply an FU to Washington.
Just being interviewed on CNN right now -- a black man (sorry, don't know his name or position) who, it seemed to me, was practically in tears about how hard it was to be a parent tonight -- in short, about how difficult it was going to be to explain to children (in so many words) how a bully could become POTUS and he also said that what happened tonight is a "white lash". He also said that Muslims and immigrants are actually terrified about what will happen.
Anyone have any opinions about that?
Van Jones. Drove me nuts that he was in the Obama administration, but even though I deeply disagree with him on policy, sometimes on perspective.....and sometimes re way he expresses himself...I otherwise really enjoy listening to him on CNN. He is extremely intelligent and articulate. I really enjoyed hearing him talk about his good friend Prince upon Prince's untimely death.

I just hope they are careful to not be TOO reactionary (in every sense of the word). It was backlash (or white lash, if you prefer) from the extreme liberals that caused the Trump victory (if that is what tonight proves to be).
The last thing we would want four or eight years from now is a president that would make Obama or HRC look like conservatives!
I personally hope that Kasich or some other MODERATE (or two) are the POTUS candidates from now on.
