For many Americans, it feels as if the 2016 election split the country in two.
To visualize this, we took the election results and created two new imaginary nations by slicing the country along the sharp divide between Republican and Democratic Americas.

Without California the dems may never again win a presidential race. It accounts for a fifth of the electoral votes needed to win.

“Spot on. Theres a correlation between dependence and illarys vote.”
America was great, when only “landed” men voted. The “makers.”
Not “takers.”

Even though I was born in,raised in,and lived in the suburbs of a major Northeastern city my entire life (except for when the US Department of Defense was my employer and landlord) I have far more respect for the "typical" resident of suburban Indianapolis (just to pick one city) than I do for the "typical" resident of suburban Boston,NYC,Philly,Baltimore,DC,Chicago,LA,SF or Seattle.
The heartland is where the *real* America is.The coasts are just places populated by those who believe that Saul Alinsky and Bill Ayers actually have souls.

In many ways it seems more like a rural/urban split than a left/ right. On the other hand rural areas are generally more conservative than urban. Our urban centers have become leftist sewers.

NYT acting surprised that the nation is split into two camps.
One half liberals and one half Americans.

Hillary keeps bleating about winning the "popular vote" (gag).
.....take out the three million illegals that voted and count the absentee votes that may not have been counted.....to see that Hillary lost all the way around......

Trumps America also retains the vast quantities of natural resources to sustain life and grow a vibrant economy and be self sufficient.
Hillary’s Micronesia like island nation will be dependent on imports from other countries and the population will face shortages and long lines of consumers waiting on gubmint to supply their needs...

Pretty cool. I noticed they didn’t want to name many of the Clinton islands in the South.

Oklahoma is mighty impressive. Not a smidge of Hillary pollution. WEST Virginia is free of her foul footsteps' pollution.

Absolutely amazing. Also heard on Bill Cunningham’s radio show last Sunday night that when you take the voting by Congressional Districts into account that the Republicans had about 60 Million plus votes to the Democrats 56 Million votes.

Thank you for the link as I was not going to click on the NY Times and add to their ratings. I want them to disappear into the cesspit where they belong.
