There are two Americas.[thread="509493"]Quote:[/thread]
It's not so much a reflection of his brilliance as it is a reflection of the country as a whole right now...IMO
Yup. I'm not upset that Trump won, as he won it fairly. I'm upset at the fact that most Americans think the way he does, which is why I'm done with this @#$@. He's the candidate they wanted and deserved. And yes, I knew these undercover racist hicks were prevalent in our society, but I was stupid to think it was 51:49 civilized to inbred hick ratio when it's more like 25:75

Dude won it fair and square. Can't even be mad at that.
But I really don't feel like I belong here. White America, and not just country *** folks, spoke LOUD and CLEAR about how they feel about those that are different. I'm completely disheartened by what I saw last night from my fellow Americans. I've never been the "rah-rah, America is so awesome" type of dude b/c I'm not blind and can see the flaws we have here. But I had hope that we were progressing slowly but surely towards something better. I no longer feel that way. This country is for white men--always has been and likely always will be. That's a sad reality.
Let's not forget more Americans voted for Hillary than for Trump.
And if you compare the relative wealth and education of those two groups, the difference is yuge.
This is still our country.
