How the Party of Lincoln Became the Party of Racial Backlash

GOP aren't the only people who are pissed, dude.

Saying " this is why trump won" is not doing any favors. Trump won because the the white america is feeling very hostile towards non whites in America. Even the polls have shown a correlation between racial animosity with trump vote.

Trump won because his voter base doesn't care about solving the actual problem that this country faces. Illegal immigration is an issue, but it is not a major pressing issue, yet his voters treat this as a rallying point to mount up support for him.

The end result? We lost net neutrality, enabled big media conglomerate to merge to mega corporations, gutted climate change efforts, gave away tax breaks at the expense of massive deficit, letting the federal run by people who actively hate on federal government, and so on.

Like I said, seeing all this happen, why do you expect liberals to show respect when republican voters don't? They let this all happen because of the "lol this makes liberals angry, so I am happy with my R vote!!" attitude.
