Never any media bias - well maybe just a little. All the time.

SO BEFORE THE ELECTION THE PRESS WAS ALL “IF TRUMP LOSES, WILL HIS SUPPORTERS ACCEPT IT LIKE GOOD AMERICANS, OR REACT LIKE VIOLENT REDNECKS?” And now that he’s won: Tens of Thousands Protest Trump Election Victory, 124 Arrested.

Will anyone blame Hillary for her campaign’s fear-mongering rhetoric that incited this reaction?

Only people who live in the FoxNews/Drudge/Michael Savage echo chamber.

Those folks in the streets have as much right to voice their opinions as the folks who chanted "Lock her up".

95% of voters who didn't vote for Trump woke up Wednesday and resumed their lives.

Goose, do you think the winning side is as angry as the losing side in this election or am I just reading shit wrong?

Goose seems very angry (and not sure he's on the winning side).

I think he was looking forward to bashing Hillary for 4 years and doesn't know what to do with himself now.

Actually I've been skipping around the internet laughing at the whiners, criers and protesters. Bunch of damned babies.

Have you seen many Trump voters protesting? I don't think there's anger there, they won.

I think it may be sort of like a MSU/scUM thing where there remains some resentment for the elitist denigration they've taken for a long time and this is sort of a just desserts victory for them.

All the Trump voters I know are gloating actually that the press was so wrong.

My quest is to find the other 16 Castle voters in Oscoda County - we could form a powerful voting bloc.

Now off to the Dr and see you kids later.

I guess I'm reading these things wrong.   It seems like there is a lot of anger.   Both sides.

Did we vote by land or people?

CNN interviews this justice warrior for some reason. Look at her Twitter account & see she was barely active in Oct & nothing in Nov.

Goose,
Read before you post.

I said nothing about Trump voters. I referenced those attending rallies and chanted "Lock he up" and stated those protesting had the same right to voice their opinion as those "Lock her up!" folks.

There is a fringe who are never happy with election results and this time its not Republicans aka self-identified "conservatives".

But we are already seeing the war on the main stream media never rests. Not even with winning the White House, The House and Senate.

How did Trump win i so many rural areas? A big part of it is Direct TV and Dish along with internet thru cell. 30 years ago when I started my sales career I called on rural, low population towns and villages. They didn't often have cable in town yet. They might get a daily paper delivered. Their news and entertainment came from 2-3 TV stations with major affiliates and radio.

In 2016 we have choose your news. A lot of rural America has Direct TV and Dish. They can choose to watch any number of news sources and we all know news channels have targeted various audience demo's. Not knocking it but its a new world of media and influences.

If you asked someone how great it would be to be the first NCAA school to win a football, basketball, and baseball National Championship in the same year, they'd admire the institution which was able to put together that feat, but if it was the university of michigan, you might look foolish asking Spartans why they are beating the drum about it.

My candidate did slightly better than the Prohibitionist candidate.

leave it to the right to assume that respect is expected and not earned.

Are you saying she didn't earn it by running a successful campaign?...because that actually happened Bob.

remember when Goose didn't like the idea of a Trump presidency?

I think it was Monday.

I love watching all these candy asses crying when they don't get their way.

I've won elections and I've lost them, you sack up, accept it and move on.

I remember voting for Carter in 80.  Was bummed he lost.  I voted on campus.  36 years and 9 votes later, not one of those fuckers has really effected my life.

Robert J Sakimano wrote:so rednecks and racists voted for Trump.

And as long as Bob and his pals feel this way Republicans will continue to win.  

They now control 35 Governor's offices, The Presidency, The US House, The US Senate and the vast majority of state Legislatures.   In the last 8 years with this attitude the Dems have lost the House, the Senate, The Presidency and over 1000 State level legislative seats.  

It seems to be a winning formula - keep calling your fellow Americans idiots and racists.

Bob's view of where the racists live.

Gosh. How is the country so screwed up with all these Republicans in charge?

Most of the country isn't screwed up. The majority of the big cities are though and ironically that is where the Dems still hold power and have for 50 years.

agree.

I find it interesting and I'm not overly invested either way (unless you factor in trolling then I'm 150% in). Which is probably quite healthy.
