What We're Seeing On Election Day [Schadenfraude]
The New York Times ^ | November 8, 2016 | The Deep State

Posted on 11/08/2016 8:37:55 PM PST by JOHN ADAMS

It turns out that we were wrong. There turn out to be a huge number of people — white people, living mainly in rural areas — who don’t share at all our idea of what America is about. For them, it is about blood and soil, about traditional patriarchy and racial hierarchy. And there were many other people who might not share those anti-democratic values, but who nonetheless were willing to vote for anyone bearing the Republican label.

I don’t know how we go forward from here. Is America a failed state and society? It looks truly possible. I guess we have to pick ourselves up and try to find a way forward, but this has been a night of terrible revelations, and I don’t think it’s self-indulgent to feel quite a lot of despair.

Your paper is owned by a Mexican national and spews pro-Marxist aka 'globalist' bilge.

Reminds me of the famous English newspaper headline: 'Fog in the channel - continent cut off.' The self-absorbed don't see their self-absorption turned isolation.

I’d respond to your post but I’m late for racial hierarchy practice. My unit patrols this weekend!

MSNBC is worried. How, oh, how will Trump be able to govern? How will he unify. Yeah, I remember those concerns when Obama won. Elections have consequences. Walter Williams and Mark Levin for Supreme Court.

For the record, the drivel in the original post is by Paul Krugman.

Election judge in small town USA. . . voting up at least 1/2. Several first time voters . . . many of them YOUNG first time voters. One young man (our last voter)literally parked his car and leaving it running ran desperately to the door 1 minute before 7:00 p.m. The reason I know is because I was elected to give the Hear ye Hear ye the polls are closed statement and lock the door.

The entire county had a 66+% voter turnout.

To God be the Glory and no one else! If the final outcome is Trump we should thank the Lord God Almighty and continue to seek His direction. . .not only in politics but in our personal lives.

Christians need to take a stand for righteousness and not accept the status quo ever again. Lest we forget how the country turned its back on God shortly after 9/11.

I’m going to gloat.......I deserve to gloat. These POS bird cage liners have insulted me and my kind......the backbone of the country, meaning high school educated, redneck, church going, God loving, patriotic to a fault kind of people. I look so forward to the Slimes and Washington Compost to go under and the sooner the better!!

I really like your screen caltue from your TV. Nothing but unshaven, granola chicks and beta males.

You know, we really should start a charity to donate testicles from real men who have died to these poor beta males

For them, it is about blood and soil, about traditional patriarchy and racial hierarchy.

Sad how they see people who don't accept their narrow dogmatic group-think as troglodytes. I can't even take offense. They are blind and afraid of reality, and they got a bad blow tonight and are lashing out. I don't feel any shameful glee in them feeling bad. Just have pity on them and pray they grow out of it.
