Uh no, he put one in the highest position in the White House. That isn't denouncing, that's embracing.

Apparently to the left/media minority Trump supporters simply "don't exist" and "all" Trump voters are these racist white red-neck types

I don't care what color anyone is or from what country their roots are- I think some people just have NO clue who our elected are- and unless you really are up close--- most have just NO idea and go by what the media tells them - Hillary was no saint- but just wait- until some one shows you their hoofs....

Their lives are going to get much worse, and they're too clueless to realize it or care.

You lost libs/team dem. The country doesn't want you in charge of congress or the presidency. Fail. And the endless playing of the race card didn't help your team. And it didn't help many in the media who played it over and over and over again ad nauseam yet many of you double/triple down on the same game. Keep playing that game and your party will continue to be irrelevant.

When will the "Educated" one's wake up I wonder to reality?

There is a difference between saying that all Trump voters are racists and saying that racists tend to be attracted to Trumpian rhetoric.
And those that love their victim status (ie some blacks and lesbians) are attracted to Clintonian rhetoric.

You get the whole package with Trump, both the parts you like, and that parts that promote a white nationalist like Stephen Bannon to be the "chief strategist". Whether you like it or not, you are standing shoulder to shoulder with Trump's xenophobes. And that's OK - because for now it's a free country with free elections and you are welcome to vote for or against your own interests.
No different than Liberals who are standing shoulder to shoulder with anarchists on the streets destroying property and worse.

Both parties have undesirable elements. They are allowed to vote. Both parties need to keep their fringe lunatics under some sort of control.

Yep. we're all typical racist Trump voters.
I'm a bigoted black Trump voter.

Okay, here's the thing. Let's give Trump the benefit of the doubt for sake of argument, and say maybe he really isn't a racist. But surely at some point he must have realized that his campaign was attracting a rather high number of people who are. Wouldn't that have been a good point to take a look at his rhetoric, and alter it to avoid drawing support from people with whom he claimed to disagree?

I mean, seriously, if you discovered that the things you were saying were encouraging behavior you found loathsome, wouldn't you thing about maybe not saying them anymore?

What did Trump promise you that you actually think will happen?
Hispanics are more interested in the economy and much less interested in race politics. Sure, many Hispanics were infected by AAs and the LGBTQ philosophy of victimization after the words of Trump, but in the end most want a decent economy.
