I did read an article today about this guy and his election claims and forecast. Interesting how he mentions that there were a large number of people who didn't get out to vote in 2016. I don't think that is accurate. I think what is more accurate is that the people that the demolibs "think" stayed home and didn't vote are more likely the ones that actually did get out but secretly voted for Trump instead. I'm pretty sure the turnout for the 2016 Presidential Election as very big, biggest since the first election Obama ran in. In part because we were coming out of 8 years of President Obama who was an absolute failure on all sides. Obama rammed ACA down America's throats, stimulus plans that failed, investments that failed, shovel ready jobs.....that didn't even happen. The list goes on. And coming up on the 2016 election, Hillary in office would have been another agonizing continuation of Obama. That's why the turnout was so great in 2016. Even Hellen Keller would have seen that train wreck coming a mile away (Hillary Clinton Presidency). The stakes were too high for America, we needed to stop that train wreck before it happened. Our lives and America as a country depended upon it. That's why Hillary lost.
Well, "white guys who voted for Trump" were happily supporting a candidate who was shown to be a lying, bigoted, predatory, ignorant bully. They also would seem likelier to espouse violence and own guns. So, yes, that implies that those may well not have been "good people" and it might make sense to avoid them.

I'm not sure what you mean about "other things." Obama is better educated, and Trump himself brags about his predatory nature.
There is truth to this overall but crossing the sidewalk is ridiculous. And why is it just a race issue? IMO, anyone who voted for Trump regardless of race or gender is questionable to some degree.
Moore is obnoxious and a big bag of wind, but he's right about Trump's supporters. Actually, Moore is sort of a left-wing version of Trump. I'd love to see them get together and debate about things.
I voted for Trump mainly because I liked his stances on issues and I didn’t like Hillary’s, but I would be lying if I said I didn’t get a lot of satisfaction when Trump won, because I knew how distraught Hillary was over losing.
Again, that was not the main reason I voted for Trump, but it was definitely a bonus.
I never felt that after a presidential election before, so why this time? The difference was her “basket of deplorables” comments. What kind of dumb political strategy was it to attack the supporters of her opponent? She deserved every bit of pain that the loss caused her. I felt a huge sense that justice had been served. What feels better than justice?
It seems like the left still hasn’t learned from their mistakes. You don’t win votes by attacking voters. You get them emotionally invested in the opponent.
I always vote in presidential elections, but I can see a a lazy voter on Election Day saying, “Well, I’m really busy with other things today, but I am going to make time to vote, just so I can say F-off to these condescending a-holes.”

Hillary was too kind. Trump supporters are worse than deplorable. And Trump insults half the country all day every day. The truth is, Trump supporters hate most women, even the women hate the women. The worst insults I saw by Trump supporters were women, who spoke as if fat old Trump was going to ask them for a date while they attacked Hillary's age, weight, pantsuits, makeup, hair, even Trump spoke of her backside, saying he "wasn't impressed". It has carried on to the 2018 election too where now there are fewer GOP women in Congress than there has been in decades. Republicans rarely elect women anyway but they've reached a new low with Trump.
Not surprised at the delight - wait - satisfaction expressed at seeing Hillary in pain. It's just Trump supporters being Trump supporters. Moore is right, they are not good people.

Smh.

This is exactly what I was talking about in my post above. You guys make it so easy to vote for Trump.
There are definitely things I don’t like about Trump, and I would consider Bloomberg if he ever made it past the democratic primary. But what Trump has going for him, is people like you. In Trump’s positives/negatives column, you guys go in the “positives” column for Trump. Statements like yours, make me want to see your turmoil continue for another 4 years. That can’t really be your intended outcome, can it?

Yes, like I told you before, the feeling is mutual.
Your hate for Trump and his supporters is so strong because you see them as a reflection of the things you hate in yourself. Everything that you complain about in Trump and his supporters, can be seen coming from you in your posts every single day. Anger, hate, name calling, etc. All can be applied to you.
Please, a little introspection. You will see that you are just like those that you hate, and that it why it gets you so emotional about them.

Because I'm a right winger that hates gays, abortion and women? I think rural American "deserves" urban tax money just because? I think it's awesome to elect a guy that is personally profiting from his position as president and is even bringing his daughter and her husband in so she can get Chinese patents and he can get loans for his family from the Middle East? I think it's awesome that when they could not get security clearances, Trump overrode the denials so they have access to everything? It's simply not true but no one learns so slowly as a Trump supporter. Don't ever say Republicans care about the debt either. That was obviously a huge lie, just like all the other lies.
