Maybe so but most of those "votes" are fraudulent and should be null and void as they are from dead people, illegal aliens, and felons This might put an end to this voter fraud issue one way or another. Trump is the first elected official I have ever seen who won and still wanted to pursue voter fraud. The winner is usually happy just to win and the loser has no real resources to investigate since he is outside looking in. |

"Stormin' Norman" wrote in message ... No it means Trump does not have "big city" support. Democrats win the welfare vote hands down. When you take money from Peter to pay Paul you will always have Paul's support. Possibly you can cite a post election demographic study that verifies your assertion? Washington DC is an example, admittedly an extreme one at almost 92% for her. http://www.nytimes.com/elections/res...-clinton-trump Everything I have seen so far indicates that Clinton voters, in general, had attained higher levels of education and were more affluent than Trump voters. Not in DC. The afluent/educated daytime denizens of our nation's capitol live in Virginia or Maryland. Apparently, 40% of the full time folks get some sort of welfare. http://www.city-data.com/forum/polit...ts-public.html |

(crime, unwed birth, and welfare) If someone can actually come up with some reasonably reputable demographics of those who voted for Trump and those who voted for Clinton, I would find it interesting. This pew research study was published on 9 November so I am not sure how they could have compiled demographics based upon the actual vote. http://pewrsr.ch/2gwPa4F It appears that Trump did not do well with women, most minority groups and those with higher levels of education. Regardless, we are all citizens and we all have exactly one vote, regardless of how anyone wishes to diminish the importance of another person's vote. The shocker for the democrats is that Trump got any women and minority votes at all. That is just how out of touch they are with people out in the countryside. I was surprised myself at how many suburban women had Trump stickers on their car or posting about him on Facebook. It is like the absurd assumption that all women support unfettered abortion and gun control or that naturalized citizens support illegal immigration. |

Been voting conservative since my first presidential election in 1944 (Dewey) and I was mortified that anyone at all supported Trump. I was also shocked some cousins on my father's side supported Mussolini throughout the 30's and some on my mother's side supported Hitler, apparently until the end of the war, two of which were in the Waffen-SS. I guess I am overly sensitive and resistant to fascism / fascists / totalitarians. |

I sure do and I'm ****ed off that so many of my hard earned dollars fund programs to support lazy/useless/stupid people. Why any working taxpayer would willingly cast a vote for a Clintoncrat is beyond my comprehension. Wouldn't it be nice to get something in return for your tax dollars? Apparently myself and other working taxpaying voters spoke-up at the last election. Maybe America's lazy will finally be forced to work like the rest of us? |

Definition of fascism for Students. : a political system headed by a dictator in which the government controls business and labor and opposition is not permitted. In a private held corporation the CEO is pretty much a dictator Trump may have a few trusted advisors in his business, now he has 535 of the down the street. |

Definition of fascism for Students. : a political system headed by a dictator in which the government controls business and labor and opposition is not permitted. In a private held corporation the CEO is pretty much a dictator Trump may have a few trusted advisors in his business, now he has 535 of the down the street. But, business owners aren't the same as a government entity, either. Still, there are rules business owners have to abide by. I see him as a strong leader, not some up and coming fascist dictator. -- Maggie |

After you educate yourself on the topic of fascism and the stereotypical behavior of totalitarian / fascist leaders, you might become less ignorant on the topic and be able to come to the same conclusion, but only if you are honest and objective about it. As fascism has become a dirty, vile word, I fully expect that you will reject and fight tooth and nail any characterization of Trump as a fascist or near fascist. However, that will not change the facts. I'm serious. Just because we don't agree on Trump, it doesn't mean that I don't want to understand where you're coming from, and why you feel the way you do. I see Trump as a strong personality, but not in the same sense fascism describes similar personalities. I have already explained "why" I see him that way. |

Do you pay income taxes? I sure do and I'm ****ed off that so many of my hard earned dollars fund programs to support lazy/useless/stupid people. Why any working taxpayer would willingly cast a vote for a Clintoncrat is beyond my comprehension. My personal finances are really none of your business, but that said, yes I do and I have been paying those taxes continually for more years than you have probably been alive. Wouldn't it be nice to get something in return for your tax dollars? Apparently myself and other working taxpaying voters spoke-up at the last election. Maybe America's lazy will finally be forced to work like the rest of us? I would like to see tax dollars spent more wisely, yes. Many of our current military programs are enormous, poorly planned money holes, our DoD is far too top heavy with too many chiefs and not enough indians. In fact, I advocate our country implement two year universal military servitude for all citizens of a certain age, lower pay for these conscripts and an elimination of lifetime benefits for non-career veterans except for those who sustain direct service related permanent injuries. I would like to see the Social Security funds protected and taken out of the reach of congress so they cannot draw down the reserves by borrowing the monies and ****ing them away on pork. I would also like to see means testing for social security, hell, I don't need the SS check every month, but they send it to me anyway. I would like to see a balanced budget amendment, the presidential line-item veto and an amendment which limits federal borrowing to declared wars and certain types of disasters. Also, a complete elimination of the Federal Reserve Bank, which I consider to be a progressive boondoggle that has become a form of shadow government. Lastly, I would like to see an aggressive effort to pay down the national debt and eliminate the vast amounts of interest we as tax payers must contribute to service the interest on the debt, that alone is a travesty. I feel a dramatic reduction in governmental employment, an elimination of civil service protections which do not have parallels in the non-union private sector and a drastic reduction in retirement benefits not to mention a much longer term of service before being eligible for retirement of government employees. Our governments need to return to being a service to the citizenry, not a major employment sector of our economy. It used to be government employment was for people that without many other options, now it is a desirable career. That needs to change. I have no problem with feeding the hungry, helping to care for the sick, extending the public school education system to accommodate the needs of an advancing society and establishing a national apprenticeship and mentoring program. Regardless of the patriotic rhetoric, I believe there are groups of people who require and deserve a hand-up, not a hand-out, because of many years of oppression and systemic disadvantage. |
