So an acquaintance of mine lives in rural Part of the country, they made this post on fb today, "I have a question for all of my friends. Are you seeing blatant racism (people yelling at African Americans and Hispanics) in the name of Trump's win? Apparently it's happening here in ... but it's nowhere in the media. I'm chalking it up to ignorant rednecks. Giving true conservatives a bad name."
__________________Half of their friends are chiming in with similar stories, the other half are saying "are you kidding, there's stories like this all over today", and one is blaming Obama supporters saying they're pretending to be Trump supporters so Obama can enact "marshall" law. This IS isolationist media at work. She is genuinely shocked that these stories are happening in her backyard. Racism in the empowering of Trump was all glorified liberal hyperbole. This is what you voted for. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference |

Carson is better suited for Agriculture, I mean he knows all the grain is stored in Vegas.

I protested Trump long before he got the nomination. I hated the idea of this man from before the first GOP debate. That said, it's as though we're just going to think up every horrible thing and say, "yes, that right there - that's what he's going to do." How could he possibly affect gay marriage on January 20? Unless I'm overlooking something, this is virtually impossible. |

my emotions are still all over the map, and i'm headed to "real" America in about a week for Thanksgiving. i've been there. i won't say i know it, but i'm a frequent tourist.
there is no "real" America. there are many Americas. and a lot of this stuff is true. Quote:

we thought Trump's election would be virtually impossible. NOM has laid out a plan. social conservatives sense an opening. SCOTUS has been somehow functioning with only 8 members since February and now Trump is going to appoint the 9th, Scalia's second coming. look at Mike Pence and his horrible, horrible record on LGBT people. telling me not to be scared reeks of privilege. that's some straight-splaining. of course i hope you're right, and to his credit, the only deplorable Trump didn't exploit was homophobia. i also think that most Americans don't care much about SSM anymore. but then most Americans didn't vote for Trump. |

If logically reflecting on how the US government is structured if privileged, I'm at a loss for how to proceed. |

our justices are pretty old. people die. more people get appointed. hate groups like NOM bring a court case. marriage amendments are introduced and sail through three branches of government all controlled by one party. there's also the bogus phrase "religious freedom." don't want to give CPR to a gay person because it denies your religious freedom? we have sympathetic ears. and there's Mike Pence. we can discuss the structure, but telling me my fears are just Chicken Little-ism is like telling a woman that Donald Trump isn't going to grab her pussy. |

I definitely understand that Trump is a shock to the system and can be quite scary, and I don't mean to make it sound like gut reactions are stupid. I do think alleviating likely baseless fears is a worthwhile endeavor for the sanity of the country, right now, though. |

On the note if Ben Carson, why was he never mocked for being low energy?

I'm proud to say my county went the way of California on the 60+ 40- D/R.
We wish to be an exclave of the New California Republic. |
