Brit Reporter Jonathan Pie Gets It, Breaks Down Exactly Why Trump Won(video)
pjmedia ^ | 11/12/2016 | Walter Hudson

Posted on 11/13/2016 7:17:09 AM PST by rktman

If you can muscle your way past the language and a few flourishes of presentation, the meat of this commentary by British reporter Jonathan Pie is worth the effort. He breaks down exactly why Donald Trump just shocked the world and snatched the presidency from the entitled grasp of Hillary Clinton.

Not everyone that voted for Trump is a sexist or a racist. How many times does the vote not have to go our way before we realize that our argument isn't won by hurling labels and insults?... When will we learn that the key is discussion? If you are unwilling to discuss, then you are creating the conditions in which Donald Trump and people like him can thrive.

Hmmm. Brits. Sounds kinda like a backhanded compliment (? whatever that is) to me.

"If you are unwilling to discuss, then you are creating the conditions in which Donald Trump and people like him can thrive."

".....Donald Trump and people like him...."

Okay mr. brit, I suppose I'm "people like him". I'd be willing to say that at least 98% are NOT sexist or racist. You must be thinking of the dem party.

Electoral College Landslide: Donald Trump Pummels Clinton (trunc.)

Full title:

“Electoral College Landslide: Donald Trump Pummels Clinton, Projected To Win 306 Electoral Votes”

Well, the last of the holdouts have been called, as we wave goodbye to 2016 and look to the future under President-elect Donald J. Trump. New Hampshire, Arizona, and Michigan were the last remaining states to call in their vote counts. Clinton won the Granite State (4 votes), while Trump took the lead in Michigan (16 votes) and Arizona (11 votes). Regardless, without these states, Trump was able to clinch 279 votes, which won him the presidency.

“....Political Correctness in now backfiring against the left”. And ain’t it sweet? Now, if we can just correct the “everybody gets a trophy” bunch. Participation medals. WOO HOO! Now, where is my safety pin? Don’t suppose the whiners considered that conservatives can obtain safety pins and lure unsuspecting crybabies in to have corrective steps taken. Maybe like a 12 step program or something.

Liberals don’t want to discuss their positions,even they know that they’re shit.Talking about the positions just reveal them for what they are.

I have yet to hear a pundit, including Rush Limbaugh, concede that the reason Trump supporters like Trump is his campaign issues.

It was not mentioned on Fox News Sunday, as the pundits were trying to detect where and how they had gotten it all wrong.

It simply never occurs to them, or they refuse to admit to it because of its ramifications: Trump won because of his campaign issues and his leadership ability to get the message across.

Hurling insults and invective worked great for a while, but now it appears the game has changed and it’s nice that this man acknowledges that reality. The problem for him and his brethren is that if discussion worked then Liberal Radio would be more popular. In other words, discussion is the answer, but when you have a losing argument, it still doesn’t help them. Insults are all they have and I expect them to keep coming in a desperate attempt to stop the train from moving forward. It’ll probably even get worse....unfortunately.

Nice rant but totally misses the target. The Dems lost because their narcissism sought only data coming from people like them. They possess insecurities so severe that any data discordant to their globalist manufactured world view is seen as an attack to be defended with an even tighter grip on their crypto-Nazi interpretive framework. We are witnessing a clinical nervous breakdown, an acute psychotic episode. And the poor b@st@rds are doomed to grip with greater fury and consternation. This is the thankful end of the 1960’s hippy counter culture, itself a manufactured battering ram against Western Civilization. We need to uncover the secret rat lines of influence that gave birth to the “Summer of Love”. The data is out there on the Web if you look for it. Start with the Esalen Institute.

You’re right. About a lot Pie

But discussion won’t solve shit

U think discussion will solve killing babies and taking our guns and leaving or borders open

Or fearing calling our enemies in Islam what they are?

White people today

Man it’s truly pathetic

Think how many good ones we killed over the years fighting each other to end up with these snowflakes

You're living in the past. Most people talk like that now.

I personally think they've talked like that for a long time.

Don't be a snowflake.

It's the ultra sensitive, faux Victorian, pearl clutching sensibilities that have made the conservative movement a bunch of squishy ninnies the past 30 years.

Conservatives have become Cuckservatives.

“Not everyone that voted for Trump is a sexist or a racist. “

Well... other than we Deporables of course.

And you left out the ‘anti-science, nativist, homophobic, xenophobe’ part; titles which we also wear proudly as we chew tobacco and cook up a mess of squirrel stew.
