So she can't look at her phone on a work break ? While chilling in front of the mindless TV stuff ? It takes a minute to scan headlines and read the really important stuff. At least do that much.

You can tailor Google news search so you can get the topics you really want. It works great, not perfectly, but great.

that it takes a lot less time to stay informed than to suffer under GOPee policy.

Just one example: students who don't think politics matters and then spend decades paying off student loans. Those loans didn't fall from the sky or weren't an act of dog, they exist because of specific policy decisions made by politicians.

And anyone who doesn't understand what is happening in this country and why and who tunes out politics is a bad American and has no right to fly the flag, swagger around proclaiming how great this country is, etc. etc. etc.

Ignorant dumbasses together with venal politicians got us in this mess.

Voters can get us out of it, e.g. the black women who were instrumental in electing Doug Jones.

You fucked yourself, and you fucked the whole country.

and I dont think they get it , still

Thinks ? Not sure yet ?

What else does she need to be convinced ?

by telling everyone daily that Hillary was no better than Donnie, and in many cases much, much worse...

So seeing them pretend to give a shit about the state of affairs now rings a bit hollow.

I always vote Republican. That is how simple these people are, and they will never admit a voting mistake! This country is in sad shape. My neighbor watches Fox news all day long every day.

Today, she doesn’t regret her decision, nor does she try to justify it or apologize for it. “It just seemed like the
best choice,” she says. “Better than Hillary, that’s what everybody was saying, so that’s what we went with. A
lot of my family was just like, put anybody in that office other than that bitch.”

“I don’t want a bunch of backlash online of people calling me just an ignorant, racist, redneck. I’m a quiet, small-town girl.”

“We were raised as you don’t mix races. You know what I mean?” said Stewart. “White people’s with white people. Black people’s with black people. That’s how I was raised. And still to this day, if me and Dozer weren’t together and I’d date a black guy, my family would disown me.”

Dems should make sure that all the votes are counted and that people have the right to vote too but don't spend one
minute trying to get these people's votes. They are gone. Only after the dems take back power and work for the common
good will some of there people vote blue but many are gone for good.


BTW right across the Ohio River from the most red neck town in America, Pomeroy, OH

I agree. They are so reactive and resentful (I know many of these as I grew up around there), and if you treat them well, they manage to see that as "elitism". They think trying to make it possible for them and their kids to get a good education means "you think I'm stupid?"

Trump knows exactly how to manipulate them, and it's actually about treating them with contempt. We're not going to do that, and we're not going to do his patented "I'm with you, which is why I'm cutting taxes for ME" lying routine.
The best thing that can happen to them is to be defeated so that they get the Democratic programs and the help that they can then hate and resent.

I'm really tired of them and their resentment. Resentment is the worst motivation of all-- completely counter-productive- so they should not be treated as if they are rational actors. And I don't care if that sounds "patronizing". Everything sounds patronizing to them.

And I remind myself that most of Trump's voters are just the "Always vote GOP" types who are also pretty unreachable, if considerably more rational.

The main factor was him being on the air - full speeches and often "pre-game" coverage - constantly. Want a simple comparison? Snuggles a few years ago. Headshaking bad commercials but they were everywhere. Priced perfectly for joke/gift exchanges at work, they sold tons of them. Where I worked at the time there were about 50 employees and 5 Snuggies showed up at the gift exchange. That's 10% coverage.

they should call it something else

Everyone in the area still has a dish and gets Fox Nuze.

The "recovery" never made is down here, and there are no real jobs, but lots of empty factories.

Drug use is pretty rampant, too. Idle hands and all...

Over 95% white in most area here, so they can blame them "dark" people like Obama.

Pretty much the way 2/3rds of rural Ohiostan rolls.

(Oh and them liburls want to kill all the babies, and take away our guns..)

they will remain idiot racist fuckheads.

I am greatly confident that all of these allegedly remorseful Trump voters--who were either too stupid or too willfully ignorant to see what was obvious to everyone--will nevertheless find some way to pull the Red lever in 2018 and 2020.

Let me hear that they have renounced their stupidity and learned from it. Otherwise they don't regret their stupid Trump vote; they regret being called out for their stupidity.

5 reasons that will happen:

1) Guns Russia was working w/the NRA in 2016

2) Jesus

3) Women, blacks, & hispanics

4) The gays

5) Where they get their information

6) the R candidate is "pro-life"

Thanks for sharing it!

Yeah, negative news about the president is Fake News!

Betcha she'll vote for Trump again.

I'd like to be compassionate and forgiving, not today.

The rest of the country should just move forward and forget about people who keep trying to drag us backwards.

With a total population of 1.5 million those backward animals are responsible for the election. They done it for sure. Lol.

Everyone and everything that isn't part of their isolated world.

They love the racist, jingoistic attitude that reinforces their believe in their own superiority.

And he didn't get all of those in West VA and Kentucky.

..she doesn't have time to pay attention to what he does? She should have taken time to do her homework before she voted for the idiot. Lazy.

Thanks a whole fucking lot for taking yourself out there and voting for the obvious racist, misogynistic, grifting, sex offender for... fucking... "reasons"...

Merry Christmas to everybody that didn't do what happened in the previous sentence. I hope you guys can let that idiot and his mess slip your minds for at least one day this year.

The other 62 million plus that did the above can just go right ahead and have a not so Merry Christmas finding the time to "give a shit" because it's the only way.

i'm STILL waiting for an article about Clinton voters and how THEY WERE RIGHT the whole time.

the media treats trump voters like they are the only people whose opinions matter.

it is disgusting
