You are the only one talking about the 50's.

Silly Liberals, no ones rights will be infringed. Take your depression pills and your mind off of the election.

you mean the guns rights will not be infringed-
what are we doing about all the repealed health care? the refugees we agreed to accept? the allies ? the trade agreements? think can just put all back in the box?

My gson is 20 under his mom's insurance which happens to be a great one -from her work- and he has been in the hospital since June 2016 - because of the ins he is been well taken care of and they agree to pay as long as he is progressing in his therapy- he is doing well but it will take time and therapy to get all to function correctly so he can hopefully regain his life back.

Please go tell his mom- sorry cant cover him anymore-

Tell that to all the Christians who voted for Trump, as they want to impose their religion on the rest of us. Funny how the candidate they voted in is not the least bit religious. So much for "conservative values".

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.
You need a hobby

You know who I feel sorry for in this election ? WOMEN ! The women who voted for Trump didn't listen to his words. He and Pence HATE Roe v Wade, so women run the risk of losing their choices when it comes to their own bodies. Trump also feels women are objects, like his own words, "I hit the roof when I come home and dinner is not made !"

The reason I am most surprised is that women are generally so much more perceptive than we men. We are kind of the "Here, hold my beer and watch this" mentality, but women are a little smarter and are the glue that keeps the family functioning. How so many women missed the obvious signs and voted for Trump is beyond me.

Maybe they really did like it better in the 50's, when hubby ruled the roost and they were second class citizens. I would hate to think that, I think so very much more of women than to believe that to be true.

We also don't long for the time when "you knew your place". There is no dog whistle which is a theme created by the media which even you should be able to concede got this election all wrong.

Those of us who voted for Trump, simply want someone as President who will look out for the economic interests of the American citizen before anything else. That includes your economic interests.

Its all about the economy stupid. Its not about racism, returning to some other era, or dog whistles.
Well it might not have been about racism for you. But the white nationalist groups saw opportunity under Trump, otherwise they would not have came out and supported him. I think Trump will embolden them into the future, now it's hard to say if that's significant.
