    Yep. You did. I was wrong fundamentally about what voters did or didn't care about. I was wrong fundamentally about the rust belt and what that looked like. And I was wrong fundamentally about the pulse of the election.

    These small cities are bad lol. Luckily this country has given me oppurtunities for education unlike a lot of the population. Can you defend her not conceding ? I think this is almost "trumpian" in her response

    Absolutely not. I think it is completely ridiculous that she doesn't concede. Pennsylvania is done in, as is Michigan. It was game over the moment she didn't make up ground in Michigan and lost the lead in Penn with all the urban voters exhausted.

    John Kerry. He lost, so it's not a question I can answer.

    This is a brilliant doc btw. Ignore the Catholic angle and focus on his version of historical events.

    I hate to see people die but watching momma merkel burn is great. We were called racists and bigots for questioning this immigration policy 3 years ago. How the tables have turned.

    I know I didn't see it. Trump is a political tank; he just took every hit square on the jaw and powered to victory. Almost everybody who was somebody threw shade, and it didn't even matter. I despise Trump, but his victory was a truly remarkable event.

    Yeah, I'd be skeptical too. The Koch Bros never gave Trump any money, which is unprecedented for a Republican nominee. They also funded his opponents.

    This is something that I feel makes the left vulnerable for years to come in the USA. The list of Hilary donors (especially the billionaires) will be analyzed for years to come. Doesn't look good if you are trying to sell government for the people.

    Political tank is a good term for it. I've counted 5 lies that he has caught the media on that are really remarkable. He almost baits them into committing on certain things yet they are proven wrong a few weeks later. Trump also has breitbart. Conservative culturally , left economically , anti globalist. It's a dynamic community.

    They are related in the action itself, but not the motive. Also this action is applicable in their country, and not in western countries. If they were removing the cross from their logo worldwide not to offend Muslims, it'd be completely comparable to what you're describing.

    I doubt Sweden is in actuality the rape capital of Europe/World. The statistics show Sweden having the highest incident of rape because (1) since it's a very feminist country women are way more likely to report rape and (2) they have the most stringent laws on what constitutes actual rape. What's sexual groping/assault (or not even that) in most countries is considered rape in Sweden. They also count multiple instances of the same abuser towards a victim as separate instances of rape. Many of those sexual assault reform laws passed in 2005 and had an immediate effect on the rape statistics although not much had changed. But yeah, let's blame it squarely on the immigrants. I don't doubt there is an overrepresentation in crimes from immigrants in countries that have taken refugees and have had an influx of immigrants, but that data needs to be presented and dealt with responsibly.

    The data is never dealt with and cannot be analyzed fairly so your point is lazy. In the U.K. There was a story where Pakistani migrants were selling and prositiuting young girls under 14 for a long time... the paper found out early before the authorities but waited to publish. The journalist who discovered it admitted on the BBC he was afraid of the backlash. And you really aren't arguing anything , just spitting talking points from John Oliver to be honest. I
    Mean you get the process but you don't see the result. I whole heartedly
    Agree with you on the feminists influencing laws but the rape I see often times isn't Muslim on white. It's Muslim on Muslim , especially at these camps in Germany. Regardless You want to Be blindfolded cause you don't want to seem crazy or racist, which is good and it will help you in this society. Doesn't mean it's close to the truth and doesn't dispute what this thread predicted ,,,, #eurabia

    Plus we should talk to the people of Spain. Not the upper middle class guy from Madrid. The low
    Middle class guy of Grenada and the Basque Country will give you a good idea of how this Muslim immigration thing is working. They can't get a job so hopefully their parents have Internet so they can log in and have a voice. In reality they have no
    Voice. They are cucked by the European Union. The guy from Greece or Italy isn't far of from the guy from Kosovo or Serbia in the early 2000s. Destroy the culture , destroy the family , Destroy their income and then you own the person.

    And I never said Sweden was the rape capital of the world I said Europe which Doesn't come from me ... it comes from the Swedish people I meet on Facebook. Technically American college campuses are the rape capital of the world and the democratic republic of Congo lol. So that's the pc culture view , Sweden is perfect in a pc view. Yet they keep moving farther and farther right and we all wonder why....

    AND to be fair Celito made a decent point but when have I ever argued how great Germany and Sweden are ?? I have sweedish ancestry and never re lated with the culture. Same with Germany. There is a reason why momma Merkel will lose. The elite want to destroy Europe. Like I said before Italy, Spain , and Greece have been reduced to it...

    And to make another point it was remarkable. You may not like trump but he taught some life lessons... one that stood out is don't listen to what they say about you. And don't be afraid to be direct and say what you feel.

    Stock market will do what it wants to do to be honest although some industries were very directly affected positively by Trump being elected like prisions and steel as examples.

    Do they not have a job because of larger economic issues or because those immigrants took their jobs ? I think it's the former and not the latter. But yes, immigration makes things worse because it puts more stress on the system. Less Government money to go around.

    Government has a lot of
    Control over the stock market in reality. Prison stocks went up when Clinton was elected too.. that's when we started mass incarceration.

    A lesson in electoral college strategy perhaps. Let's not forget he was outvoted by almost 3 million people. He is a minority President. Unless you believe there was wide spread fraud. Some people believe the power that be wanted Trump to be president and actually rigged the election in his favor as part of a new world order. But those are conspiracy theories.
