Based on a sample of 1,200 voters and Washington Post analysts, race was the primary reason many folks voted for DJ Trump.

For those of us in the South, this is a no brainer. But too many Americans don't see the Klan's pointy hats and consequently think "there's no racism here."

DJT normalized open racism and hatred. When he was being endorsed by david duke and other extremist groups and individuals he welcomed it.

HRC called this group of racist, sexist , homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, a basket of deplorables. If you look at the official presidential twitter feed you will find many of his supporters that proudly wear the moniker.
Apparently "deplorable mom" sounds better than "racist mom"

Saw that.

Agreed.

The Democratic Party Establishment has been curiously silent on this score, yet another reason to create a leftist Social Democrat wing to beat them over head until they actually start representing the majority of America's citizens.
