    Every election cycle, the Democrats and media start to fret about the black vote. Will black women turn out? Will black men vote correctly? And this cycle culminated in the Obamas going on a “pull your pants up and vote” tour to boost turnout.

    Now I’m not black, but I recognize double standards and condescension. I wouldn’t want to be treated that way.

    After the election, Latinos have been targeted by progressive rage and lashing out. I’ve seen people that I used to respect say that they deserve to be deported because of their vote.

      So black folks, brown folks, Hispanics, etc go ahead and vote for trump. Fuck around and find out. DNC sucks balls, but if you can’t vote minimally in your own interests you’re about to get what’s coming to you. Sorry about ya, the writing is on the wall.

      My Indiana coastal elite D voting ass is not spending any more time or energy saving morons from their own vote.

      What, they demanded incompetent racist fuckery. Order up! The fact that they brought down all women with them is, like, a bonus.
