I wasn't but as I say I don't see how that's entirely Obama's fault. It was just ignorant employers and possibly the Congress under him. I mean he wasn't perfect. He did have his disappointments too so if I had to do it over I might not have voted for him but he really wasn't THAT bad especially compared to Trump.

So what do the Trumpettes say to THAT?

You have a racist ADMITTING to this,yet minorities are paranoid!

COME AGAIN!
One of my young Latina co-workers was verbally, racially assaulted this morning by two young white guys who threw around a few comments that referenced the well known rhetoric of the Trump campaign and then ended with stating a well known racist phrase. She came into work crying and left early because the incident was so jarring.


We really are not paranoid.

It isn't actually a lie: About that video of Obama encouraging illegal immigrants to vote… « Hot Air. As it is pointed out in that link: "He should have said, “First, let me be extremely clear on this point: If you are not a citizen, you can not vote. If you do vote, yes, you will be prosecuted because you are breaking the law.” But he never did and thus some illegals could have taken his remarks to mean go ahead and vote. The POTUS is a lawyer. While the question to him needed clarification; he did not take the time to do so - perhaps he wanted to leave it that way?

To be fair, you have no idea how Trump will be. I didn't vote for him but I hope for the best but I'm not expecting it.

Only because of the rabid psycho fantasies people like YOU pound into them. Anyone with half a brain isn't at all devastated.

Truly sorry for this, but maybe your co-worker, you yourself, and the OP should all recognize that the street isn't as civil a place as these forums usually are. And people on the other side of the divide have taken plenty of abuse as well.

I expect to post more about this as he next few weeks pass, but for now, let it suffice to say that Trump comes from a very atypical background, is a consummate actor who will no longer have to put on as much of an act. and doesn't have a long history of realpolitik IOU's. Things are about to get very interesting, and it's only the most extreme Leftists who have assigned themselves a back-row seat -- for the present.

LOL. OK.

Terrible.

I believe that it's just going to get worse as the cretins have been emboldened.

We are going to see our gains eroded,all because some white voters thought their precious resources were being diverted to minorities.

Hey minorities,you do not deserve to live and be treated like a human,that is only for white American men.
Uh; 1 "Hispanic" in 3 voted FOR Trump. Hillary was no Obama. Sorry. Too; a LOT of women also voted for Trump.
