Let's not forget to blame Bush..

blame and responsibility are different animals

most of the responsibility for what happens to americans, lies with americans,,,not some mystery politician in one position or another

and Americans have responsibly elected Trump as President.

you mean the states have,,,

go states rights,,

Yes, people vote in their states and they elected Trump.

yes , their states did

President elect Trump.

Get use to hearing it.

Crap

When people become aware of all the labeling we do, so humanity might improve.

I will take it further

when people realize the judgmental way we use labels,,

labels are not the issue, when defining real differences,, but the idea that difference has to mean better or worse is sad

Actually he got his tactics from Putin who was Lieutenant Colonel of the KGB before entering politics in 1991.







Trump and Hitler used the same techniques to gather support

I read this over and over and I can't seem to wrap my head around what you mean.

But

I mean to say that labeling isnt harmful, in and of itself

people are democrat, republican, independent, african american, white, asian, male, female, degree holders, diploma holders, christians, protestants,employed, unemployed, rich, poor,etc,,etc,,

labels further describe the things that make each individual an individual


we are not all the same or homogenous

but its the tendency that those labels/differences are assumed to be evidence of being better or worse, which truly disrupts progress

Yes, disrupts progress.
Ageed.

I haven't read all the post here. This might have been brought up and I just didn't see it. The fact is, Hillery won the popular vote. Let's break that down. That means that more Americans voted for Hillery than they did Trump. The only reason Trump got the presidency was because he got the 270.

Now, It seems to me the real question here is, Was the voice of the people heard? This is why so many millions of people have hit the streets in protest. When you get down to the nitty-gritty of it. It doesn't matter whether you are Dem or Rep. Was the voice of the people heard? That's what the protesting is about. It has nothing to do with whining about who won. Or because their candidate didn't win.

The voice of the people wasn't heard.

Donald Trump 60,350,241 (47.3%)
Hillary Clinton 60,981,118 (47.79%)

That’s a difference of 630,877 votes.

with well over 7 million votes still needing to be counted.

So, does anyone right now actually know who won the popular vote?...( not that it matters) how could they, when all votes have not been counted yet?

The final tally will not be out for weeks from now.

The electoral college has been around for how long now? Don't all candidates know that is what determines the next president? All of a sudden, the whiners are yelling foul. If it changes to popular vote, instead of the electoral vote....fine, but it's too late for this electional. Everyone knows the rules and played the game. Like it or not, Trump won.
