    Trying to blame liberals because and authoritarian, right-wing party nominated and elected an unqualified, authoritarian right-wing personality. OK. You believe that. And it will happen again.

    Trump won because of white people.

    I'm not blaming the liberals...I'm just saying he used a liberal tactic...he just did it on a national scale and he checkmated everyone.

    To be fair, the Republicans have demonizing the Clintons for 25 years; he had a much bigger head start.

    Correct, but it's still a sound bite. The GOP has been pushing the HRC narrative for some time and it was effective since someone who is more dishonest and more than likely just as "corrupt" was elected.

    Funny thing though is that i don't recall ever hearing of that as a liberal tactic until you said it was. I had deduced that tactic a long time ago by their actions. It really wasn't that hard to see.

    United We Stand, Divided We Fall.

    Hillary divided Democrats from Bernie and then divided white men with everyone else. It didn't work. She is a corrupt politician and ignoring that or trying to deflect to Trump's shortcomings didn't work. And btw it didn't work last week, it won't work this week or next so...you know...or in 4 years....adjust?

    Yes, I do believe the over-demonizing of everything white or male is real and really affected this outcome to the extent that it could. I also think Hillary is an unsavory character herself and it didn't pan out for her, her followers.

    Break the walls down. Quit dividing skins and weewees/hoohoos. Or try the same ****-flinging thing for 4 years and hope it ends up your way. Who knows, I'm just an observer but that's what I see and think about it.

    What Trump has done is not a tactic of "the right" or "liberals". This argument is just another way to, with nuance, lay the section of Trump at the feet of liberals.

    Trump took control of a very powerful messaging machine that had been stoking fear of liberals and hatred of anything not Fox approved for several years. And the mere labeling of his approach as "liberal tactic" shows the power of that messaging. Yeah, this **** is gonna happen again. Trump isn't the last, just the first.

    Trump talked about punching people in the face, and made me dream and lust to be punched in the face by him. He's a face-punching type of guy. Now he got scared of some teenagers carrying signs. I wish so so very bad that Trump would punch me in the face. I'd stomp that piece of ****.

    This. They have been fed right wing propaganda so long that have stopped inhabiting the same reality.

    I know you haven't sweet heart.... you merely repeat what your brand of news sources tell you.

    Start reading every side's new sources, and even read international news agencies. You will find that the world you thought you knew was merely an illusion.

    Do you have the same feels for Joe Biden? Biden even alluded to teenage boys with his "high school" quip...

    I have the feeling that Trump wants to punch both Joe Biden and myself in the face. I don't see your logic.

    To the OP....

    Political correctness did play a role in motivating folks but the biggest issue is the world has fundamentally changed and people are fearful of that.

    Trump spent a lot of his campaign demonizing brown people, not joking here. That is real and it's affected SJWs to react and call some people out for what they are.

    It's ironic you posted a gif of Trump telling a lie during the debate.
