Ultimately, it was Trump's background caused own defeat.

Trump is real estate landlord all his life without any public service experience. His view is a Trump Tower view. When his huge tantrum kicks in, American public does not trust him for nuclear code, policies on troops overseas, immigration policies, tax policies ...

The demographics were intentionally changed over the years by mass immigration of non-whites to create a Democrat permanent majority.

Personally I think Hillary can be the Globalist President of her 'people of color' and white liberal coalition and they should all celebrate their diversity in latin America.
Rubio would have gotten 40% of the Latino vote this year. A Rubio / Jindal ticket would have devastated the Democrat's lock on non White voters. Kasich did well with non White voters and you also passed on him. Instead you chose George Wallace 2.0. Many Black and Hispanic Americans understand the Obama didn't change much but until the GOP offers an alternative that isn't openly hostile towards them they will continue voting 80% Democrat.

If Hillary wins we may as well quit working. You'll make out better sitting at home chances are.. What incentive will there be to actually go to work??
Dignity

Self-respect

Responsibility

A yearning to be Productive

A desire to be an asset and not a burden to society

Can I ask:
Why are you voting for Hillary?


Well, she's smart, hard-working (rumor has it that Trump is notoriously lax), experienced, restrained, articulate, reportedly surprisingly caring in her encounters with ordinary people, with great international connections, a history of working "across the aisle," seriously interested in healthcare, education, etc.


And of course, she'll be the only person to enter the White House with no delusions. I think presidents generally don't (can't) fully understand what they're getting into.
