Oops.
Oops.
Clinton lost because of low dem turnout. Bush in 2004 got more votes in Michigan than Trump got. Romney in 2012 got more votes in Wisconsin than Trump did. Trump equaled Romney's vote total in Minnesota but Romney lost it by a bigger margin because Obama had typical Dem turnout.
I wouldn't brag about the ability to win elections like that. It spells doom.

Honestly I wouldn't want to be ruled by nationalists - that's a disaster. Almost guaranteed war.

1. Demographic changes are important, but when you are literally shoving the people into states you already own it does nothing to help you in the electoral college. Putting a million Mexicans and California, just means more popular votes. Put a million Mexicans in Georgia and all of a sudden chit gets interesting.
2. The white vote is still by far the most powerful voting block, and its not even close. They said that there were 4 million more Hispanics this time around than last election. Great, sound like a lot. But then you have to think, just getting a shift in the white vote by 2% completely wipes out that Hispanic growth. Just get 2% more white people to vote for you, and an additional 4 million Hispanics just got nullified.

What we see is:
1) People getting dissatisfied with the current status-quo.
2) Marxists and communists getting soundly beaten (Bernie was crushed, Melenchon defeated, Hollande's approval in single digits, Corbyn in the dumpster).
3) Far-right parties becoming more popular than ever (this is a bad thing in general, but they are currently the only people who defend national sovereignty).
All this points to the eventual emergence of strong center-right nationalist parties who advocate for tight immigration control (but not mass deportations/killings/concentration camps) & pro-market policies (but not unrestrained global capitalism).
Very few people want a Le Pen to actually hold power. But do not fool yourself into believing that people voted for the left. The left was crushed, absolutely decimated. Macron is a centristinvestment bankerwho will likely shrink the French state a little.

When all that says 'it is good' has been debunked, what says 'I want' remains.

Even North Carolina is becoming minority-majority. North Carolina was won by Bush 56-42 in 2004, but is now a full blown swing state to the point the NC GOP has to suppress votes.
Virginia was a GOP stronghold 1964-2004 (Clinton couldn't even win it in the 90s!) but now thanks to demographics is a blue state.

I care about what happens next but I'm probably going to be alright no matter what. I would just hate to see the country turn into one big California. Cali can survive their policies because they are Cali. You'd bankrupt a state like Arkansas (for instance) if you put in Cali policies. Personally I was hoping that the GOP was going to have a more Mexican friendly platform this time, and they ended up the opposite. The reason why I say that is because Mexicans in general have a lot more in common with the GOP than Dems. If the Dems shift their economic policies to something more realistic and sustainable...I'd have no issues with Dems running the show.

If we voted by popular vote Trump would have lost by even more votes than he did. There is also Texas, which is going to be blue very soon as well.
You guys are in the minority. We are the majority now. HAHAHHAHAHA!!!

Trump won because of poor Dem turnout. Nothing more, nothing less. There was no wave.
If Trump got like 51% in Michigan and Wisconsin, and 52% in Pennsylvania and Florida then I'd be worried.

His base is maxed out. He could win in 2020 (if he picks up Romney suburban voters), but after that it's all over. Demographic changes and younger whites are more liberal.
If Trump had a wave similar to Obama in 2008 I may have been concerned. Like if he had a Bush 2004 wave.

Those populations are growing the fastest in strong red states, particularly Arizona, Texas, Georgia, Florida, and North Carolina and their growth is outpacing the white population in the first two and Florida. Virginia was a strong red state until recently and I wouldn't be surprised if Florida and NC lost their swing status next.
If the DNC were smart (kek) they would shift away from identity politics, more subtly push for civil rights "because it's right and fair," move more to the center economically, and keep the Hillary and Bernie/Warren camps in the basement where they belong. Alternatively, the GOP needs to admit it lost the culture war and ease up on abortion if they want to have a future. Basically, whoever mimics the Tories first wins in the long run.

I actually feel not taking care of this problem is discrimination towards my families when they both came in as immigrants the legal way.

The Dems have hit 65 million+ votes 3 elections in a row. The GOP has maxed out its base.
If Trump won the popular vote like Bush did in 2004 (50-51%) and won over 320+ electoral votes, I would think right wingers had a chance.
Some would argue that Trump would have won the popular vote and more electoral votes but a) he ran a crap campaign and b) the Access Hollywood tape damaged him a bit.
It's super frustrating that this has happened to Dems not once, but TWICE in the past 16 years. Romney LOST the popular vote but right wingers lost their mind thinking he won it. So don't act like you wouldn't have been pissed if Trump won the popular vote but lost the electoral college.
Lol what? It's always right wingers that start the wars - the American Civil War was also started by right wingers. Leftists are peaceful.
Notice how Europe gets along now? Better than World War II started by right wingers.

homosexual that's becoming the new President of France is threatening Poland with economic sanctions for not letting in rapefugees, for instance.
It was Democrats that seceded from the union. Also, the Gulf of Tonkin incident was manufactured by a Democrat administration to get America into a war with Vietnam.
You're clinging to the hope that Hillary won the race no one was running as an omen for things to come but the Democrats currently have no one appealing to run. But I hope all Democrats are as lazy and complacent because of their belief in inevitably as both you and Hillary.

The Dems currently fail in that department, so I can't even get to #2, #3, #4, etc to consider.move more to the center economically

If you haven't noticed, there hasn't been a World War in over 70 years thanks to leftism. Last thing we want to go back to is the rise of fascism pre-WWII!
Just say you want to get rid of those different than you and get it over with.

I actually feel not taking care of this problem is discrimination towards my families when they both came in as immigrants the legal way.

A lot of these folks happened to be in the swing states that gave him the election. Don't underestimate Trump's base.
Are the black and Hispanic voting blocks high powered academics throwing their votes in for the democrats?

There's no such thing as "right wing populism". It's self contradictory - what dafuq is a "non-capitalist" capitalist? That's fukking nonsense.
Ideation will never beat materialism. You have to join hands with the immigrants (also known as "cheap capital" to our capitalist owners) and their descendents if you want to fight the banks and "globalism".
("Globalism" sure is really a tortured, roundabout euphemism for "capitalism", isn't it? Weird people gotta be weird, I guess.)

Government control or capitalist that in turn influence the government or an established aristocracy, it doesn't matter. The cream rises to the top.
