Trump won because he speaks to people without treating them like his lapdogs. He is the figurehead of several different movements, either intentionally or not. The people actually like what he offers in terms of policy, cultural impact or both.

This was not an election won through bigotry, and if you honestly believe that you perhaps need to remember how little you trusted the media before this result.

I agree.

I don't blame bigotry entirely but come on guys it's obviously present.

Never thought he'd win the electoral college. Holy cow.

I keep hearing about this a lot, but I wasn't aware that Trump was markedly anti-LGBT or that he even posed a threat to them. Anyone have examples or is this just hyperbole?

Okay that makes sense. Especially since there's a possibility that we'll be seeing a President Pence before the next election

Trump won not by flipping any major districts, but instead by flipping dozens of smaller counties in swing states. Counties that are predominantly white, middle class, and non-college educated. Van Jones nailed it last night by calling it a "Whitelash".

Yup. And so is the majority of the GOP led house and senate. Not to mention the folks that Trump is going to fill his cabinet with.
