yes. Most white Americans wants Donald trump, all nonwhite votes are illegitimate. Without the minority vote Trump would win in with a landslide.

Great. Dictatorship of the self-proclaimed majority. That is why we have the rule of law and human rights, but somehow, that never seems to register with knuckleheads.
Oh, and, by the yay, more people voted for Hillary than Trump. Who is the majority, already?
@ Uilleam
That's the problem. They think modern democracy is something that lets them do whatever they want if they are in the majority. Somehow, for them, politics are like sports: support the winning team and you are the king of the world.
They seem to think that Trump getting elected will somehow make things better for them, just because they supported him.

Jayzis Uilleam, and the sky is blue.
...meanwhile, Nige is in a FaRAGE over how the legitimate vote - especially among the mainly white people of Hull, including yours truly; who returned three Labour MPs at the last election with increased majorities; UKRAP & the neo-Nazi National Front got nowhere - backs Parliament which now has the legal right to deny Theresa May the right to trigger Article 50.
So many are regretting their decision to vote the way they did in a recent referendum; already the effects are being felt on our economy.
Scotland wants another referendum...!
Whites only want Trump because the alternative has completely failed them. Trump would never have won if someone who at least pretended to pay attention to the Rust Belt whites had been nominated (*cough*Bernie*cough*). If a left-wing version of Trump existed (Trump's fighting spirit with Bernie's politics, at minimum), than Republicans would never win another election in this country again.
@Indicible
Gary Johnson ensured Trump couldn't win the popular vote. Colorado and Nevada would've gone for Trump without Gary J., and Utah would too without Evan McMullin. Keep citing that piece of mainstream media intel, which is odd as the mainstream media pushes that while simultaneously criticising third parties.
@Anon-e-moose
Your Labour Party is dying because of your own fault, and your own failure to heed George Orwell's caution in Road to Wigan Pier about the distinction between the lower classes and the upper class who cares for them. Do you wonder why the UKIP can dominate in traditionally Labour constituencies? The "Left" has failed to adapt to the 21st century, and that's why the UKIP and in the US, Trump, can win. But keep calling them stupid--let's see how far it gets you! Corbyn's your last shot (and I doubt the government would let him accomplish his potential), and if you can't win with him, your party is as dead as the Liberal Party was historically.
@ TimeToTurn
And who's to say that Johnson's electors would not have voted for Clinton?
The number of voters for Clinton is not a piece of liberal intel, it is a fact.
I agree that a Sanders with Trump's energy would be the best candidate. However, Sanders was interesting because he was thinking things through and trying to appeal to educated parts of the population. The others would not have voted for him, because he is *gasp* an intellectual. We (as in Western democracies) need more people who think things through, rather than people who react and who act based on ideology. On one side, we have the wide-eyed idealists proclaiming everybody is beautiful, everybody is nice, ignoring the fact that we are hated by a good part of the globe because of our freedoms and their attractiveness. On the other side, we have the racists and misogynists who think their god has to rule a nation for it to thrive.
Trump is a fearmonger who managed to get elected by making promises he will not be able to follow through on. He already inflected some of his promises.
Keep telling yourself that he is the saviour of the USA. He is an inflated bladder that will explode as soon as the Republican party manages to get its act together. They will push their own policies and Trump will be left like an idiot that managed to get the post on an anti-establishment stance but who will serve that establishment's interest nonetheless.
Mexico will never pay for that wall. Repelling the social security reforms will simply screw poor people a little more. Russia is going to feel free to fuck everything up everywhere it wants.
But hey, this is all for the American Dream. You know why this is a dream? Because you have to be asleep to believe in it.
@TTT
Can you wonder why UKRAP got nowhere here in Hull? Against three MPs who were returned with increased majorities?
One in three chances to win in one place; an opportunity to prove Labour wrong. By the law of averages, they should've won one of the Johnson's seats. Or Karl Turner's. Yet, both the Johnsons were returned to Parliament. As well as Turner. Those increased majorities. Why?
Why didn't Nige FaRAGE win the seat he contested? Why are UKRAP tearing themselves apart...?!
@ TimeToTurn
The Labour Party is now run by self-declared Marxists who see capitalism and imperialism pretty much as you do. For the first time in about eighty years, your ideological brethren are running the UK's second largest party, and when the British people are asked "who would you prefer as prime minister, Theresa May or Jeremy Corbyn?" May is polling 3:1 against Corbyn - even "Don't know" is doing twice as well. However much his supporters try to claim otherwise, Corbyn and friends are still career politicians with little connection to the working class, unlike Labour politicians out of favor like Alan Johnson (if you want to know about the British working class, read his autobiography) whom Anon-e-moose rightly holds up as a good example.
As it is, UKIP has lost its way since Brexit, as the main reason for its existence is now no longer an issue. Since then, UKIP has been through two fratricidal leadership election campaigns and the party is in serious danger of splitting. UKIP has seen its share of the vote founder both in national polls and council by-elections. But it's the Tories who are getting most of the votes of ex-UKIP supporters. Left-wing governments aren't defeated by right-wing parties because the voters thought they weren't left-wing enough; they voted for right-wing parties because they wanted right-wing government. Not to accept this is to insult the intelligence of the electorate.
Confused?
