This is what Hillary supporters would like to portray about any Trump voter, and it's frankly the reason they got such a surprise. They failed to even attempt to understand why people voted for Trump. Just wrote everyone off as racists and bigots.


> Just wrote everyone off as racists and bigots.

Not everyone who voted for Trump is a racist and a bigot. BUT, anyone who is a racist and a bigot voted for Trump.


Cute sound bite, but there is no proof of it, unless you are subscribing to the 'only whites are racist' definition of racism.

Anyone who believes in quotas for hiring is a racist/sexist and they likely voted for Hillary.


Is there a reason you seem to be taking my comment so personally?


Maybe true but how is that relevant to GP's point?


It's pretty obvious. I'm sure you can figure it out for yourself.


Racists, bigots and misogynists. You left out misogynists.

Well, that and y'all have got a serious hardon for Putin.

Seems like it's the other way round: people who views Trump as the candidate of racists end up supporting Hillary.
