I wrote in Nikita Klæstrup. My dad keeps asking who I voted for and I keep giving him off the wall answers. On the 4th time when I said I wrote in Cthulu he asked if that was some goofy ass wrestler

Trump is leading in Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida.
Carville saying if Hillary loses Florida and Virginia, she loses.

I think most everyone would rather have him back for round 3 than either of these 2. If this somehow doesn't go in her favor I think she can pin it down to 1 tweet.

This is an interesting look at social media. The social media I follow, which I consider rather well rounded for the most part, always had Hillary winning by a near landslide.
There appears to be either far more people that remain relatively quiet across most forms of social media or just don't participate in it in the first place.
Social media and media in general is kinda getting it's ass handed to it tonight. (I'm included by the way. Didn't see this coming by any stretch of the imagination)

Right or wrong, I think a lot of this has to do with social justice issues. Most, probably all of what I'm about to list I do support but I realize there's a breaking point for a lot of folks and obviously that breaking point just so happens to be on the side of a majority of Americans.
* Political Correctness - Most of it is fine in theory but it appears we've reached the point where the majority of people are fed up with it. The perpetually offended have quite possibly morphed into the perpetually annoying. Depending what side of the aisle you're on.
* Transgenders - I believe in most of the rights they're seeking but again, here's another case where the majority of people seem to be saying enough already. Transgenders make up something like less than 1% of 1% of the population. Obviously a lot of people seem to be wondering why such a small, incredibly miniscule portion of the population is featured so prominently. Do you really get to have a separate bathroom for less than 1% of 1%? Was the Caitlyn Jenner stuff perhaps a bit much for awhile there?
* Black Lives Matter - At the very core, I agree with what they're about. Makes sense to me. But it's not enough. In some instances, what they're about needs to expand while in other instances they need to tighten the ship. The movement lacks badly needed leadership. Apparently their issue is mainly with the police. Statistics are on their side in several instances on that one. I guess in some instances the issues are also with various forms of government. Ok, I mean I can get with that somewhat. But then how do people end up out on the highway blocking traffic? Why are people laying on the ground in the Mall of America on Black Friday? Whether or not you believe those methods are noble or not is one thing but I can tell you that it pisses a lot of folks off. Looting a few hours after a police involved shooting without knowing any of the facts at that point is not something that gains the movement a lot of points. It's also inconceivable to a lot of people as to how "Black on black" crime is considered racist if it's brought up. Black on black crime absolutely has to be part of their platform going forward. It also didn't help with the number of police who've been killed in recent months by people with BLM ties. Another problem the movement has had is the cases that it has protested. The Mike Brown case for instance is worlds different from several of the other cases. So there's a few of the many issues they face. I'd love to see Pres Obama or Michelle get involved in some capacity. Or maybe Bernie? He has strong Civil Rights ties.
Ok, gotta take a break for a second before the computer crashes and loses all of that.

And don't get me wrong. I'm generally in favor of the root of the message to those 3 movements that I listed above but I just wanted to point out that perhaps there's breaking points and some tweaking that has to be done. I do believe all of those things had a part in driving Trump support. How much I'm not sure.

From what I'm seeing on social media, this appears to be the fault of white people.
Back to you KS.
