Now, the media is trying to tell us we are going to have a nuclear war and Trump is some kind of Russian agent.

I swear this election gives me the biggest headache.

And being from Texas, you'll certainly have heard about the 10-year-old girl that was raped and murdered by an illegal that been deported once, but came back in. Rapists and criminals. Some are good, but some are not.
Well....Trump: Eisenhower deported 1.5 million immigrants | PolitiFact

If if Trump literally does nothing but rob the White House and sexually assault various women over the next few years - as bad as all that would be - it's the hatred and malice shown by his supporters that is truly dangerous. They didn't go in there voting for "change" - they voted "somebody to get rid of all them Mooslims, queers, and brown people." And that is unforgivable.
So, you're brain washed by the leftist elite. Bwa ha ha ha ha.

Immigrants like me who want to blend in will go out of our way to assimilate. I took time out of my busy schedule to read about current events, read American history, slangs, pop culture, watched movies, tv shows so that I can converse with people.

The immigrants crying about discrimination are the ones who dont even bother to learn English or try to fit in. They hang out with only their kind & make no effort to venture out of their comfort zone to make friends. They expect others to bend backwards for them, make them feel welcome, respect their culture/language/dress code, while they make zero effort to reach out to them. I know several immigrants like that. Not saying racism or xenophobia doesnt exist but for every racist there are like twenty good people around you who are approachable & friendly.
Thank you for addressing this, many want us to assimilate to their culture, ain't gonna happen. "When in Rome do as the Romans do" and you can still celebrate your own culture.

Anyone who is an upstanding, working, tax-paying citizen, regardless of race or sex, should be happy that he was elected instead of Hillary.

Trump only beats her out in this category because there are far more people that graduated high school than there are that did not graduate high school in this country.

The other thing that those exit polls do, is they don't count associate degrees or trade degrees. Apparently a registered nurse, a police officer or a commercial electrician with a 2 year degree is uneducated, but the barista that makes my coffee every morning with her art degree is

I think a lot of people don't realize just how difficult some of these associates degrees are. Yes becoming an X-ray tech is more difficult than half the bs degrees at a University these days.

Trump won the educated vote. Get real......
Registered nurses with a two year degree! You are living in the dark ages....

Hey Mr DD, I have hated your guts and argued with your posts for a long time as we navigated through this insufferably long election process.
Since the final vote were tabulated and Mrs Clinton came in second, you have been nothing but a classy guy, unlike so many others on the losing side.
When obama won I was terribly disappointed but decided that he is who we have, so I would give him every opportunity to succeed. I appreciate the fact that you are willing to stop the name calling and take a wait and see attitude, it really is the best way to proceed.
None of us can predict how successful Tramp will be, but he is the man for at least the next four years, so why not give him a chance? I predict he is going to do great things. For all of our sake, let's hope I'm correct.
I have waited for a businessman to come along for a long time and show America how a country is supposed to be run. Let's see what happens.. It's long since time to get the politicians out of politics.
I predict that Trump will not run for a second term, he will return to his real love, the business world, but he felt he had to do something to save America. Once he has it going in the right direction, he will hand over the reins to another to complete the job..

However, I feel very sorry for minorities in this country, and to a lesser extent women who want to go to college and not be housewives or trophy wives. They just got a BIG middle finger from the non-college whites in this country.

A friend of mine has an adopted daughter from China. Even before the election, other kids at school were telling her she needed to go home. She didn't understand & went home crying. I'm really scared for what she will face now.

Every bully in this country just got validated.

I'm from Texas, can turn on my accent if I want to talk conservative, and I'm a combat vet with 6 years service in the Army. And I'm white. Trump supporters won't hate on me; I can blend in with them.

What I would hate to be now, is a Muslim woman who wears any kind of head scarf or something that outs her as a Muslim.
Please don't ever vote again. You voted based on locker room talk. It wasn't the economy or the Middle East it was because you heard the word p**sy?

You should have felt bad for muslim woman when democratic leadership accused them of being lunatics. "It was a video", you know how crazy they are!! pfffftt
