Iām not sympathetic to those who have been voting against their interests since Reagan.
Lost your job? Retrain. Where is it written that the world owes you a living?
With all due respect, Drumpf isnāt using a dog whistle, heās using a bull(shite)horn. Any nastiness that arises from fertilizing that poisonous crop isnāt due any sympathy.
One of the rewards of being a Clinton supporter is knowing that your candidate is always logical, reasonable, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and articulate. And caring.
Whatās depressing about being an American these days is seeing that so many of your fellow citizens donāt give a damn about all that.
FOX talking heads cry: āShe just called all Trump supports ādogsā! Thatās caninist!ā
said the dog whistler in chief ā¦
Unfortunately, an awful lot of retraining programs have turned out to be run by incompetents, poorly planned or poorly executed. People are trained for jobs that turn out not to exist. Or so many are trained that all of a sudden there are too many newly-trained graduates of programs applying for too few jobs. And in almost all cases, even those who are retrained successfully find that their new jobs pay substantially less than the old ones. There may be no way to avoid the dislocations of our rapidly changing economy, but itās foolish (or even a lie) to pretend that that makes everything right for the victims of that change.
Oh, believe you me, I can recognize one from a mile away ā¦ even farther if theyāre online. I can smell a steaming pile as well. If you need help, just let me know. More than happy to point you in the right direction.
Iām sure that Hillary is sympathetic to the people to whom Trump appeals. And that she supports programs to meet real problems in ways that will really help. But sheāand Democrats generallyāare not nearly as effective as they could be at showing the public why those programs offer the most hope for people who have lost out in economic and social change. But fortunately, she gets to run against Donald Trump.
You have nothing. You know nothing, and you are nothing.
Sheās going to be President for eight years, you will fume and writhe in impotent fury, and I will be glad.
It would have been helpful to build a culture that encourages children to focus on developing maturity, knowledge, thinking ability and trade skills instead of rap, sports, humping and collegiate extended adolescence.
Checks for the current year
itās 2016
Sometimes I wish Sanders hadnāt ignored the South and did all that he could to avoid being a Fabian alternative.
Then it would be Trump vs Sanders and

this idea could be fully testedā¦
Iām not directing this post to one particular Sanders supporter, but right now Iād love to see if I was right.
It was a very, very good reply. Reasonable, rational, easily understood by anyone not blinded by a terminal case of idiocy and hatred (like darcy).
This is the kind of thing that will make Trump and his Trumplings go crazy. They canāt really answer with an equally reasonable, rational reply. So back they go into the āPits of Bullshiteā (Trump TM) to dig up more stupidity, racism, misogyny, and bigotry. Then theyāll ineffectively hurl that crap at her, only to see it land on that pit that separates them (crazy feces throwing chimps) from the rest of us.
Actually what you describe is a Democratic voter whether they are Hillary supporters or Bernieās.
I agree with a previous commenter that there is no dog whistle in Tronaldās armory, itās all bullhorn. I give him credit for that, he does not hide behind niceties ā¦ most GOP types adorn their cesspool of ideas with doilies and lace.
In many ways Tronald Dump is the Apocalyptic candidate. Apocalypse means the unveiling or uncovering and thatās what he is doing, showing the innards of the Republican party and what there really are and what they really stand for. For that I salute him ā¦ having said thata I will never NEVER vote for a man that probably does not know the difference between Lunch Codes and Launch Codes.
Iām sympathetic to these people because a lot of them did āthe right thingā: they got jobs, they worked hard, and then some guy typing a few character on a keyboard a thousand miles away decided their lives were going to be turned upside down (often at a net loss to the company that guy-with-keyboard worked for, but thatās another matter). That ought to get people angry, especially when the decisionmakers donāt face the same risks that the ordinary people do. But Trump, like the rest of the GOP, is deliberately aiming supportersā ire in the wrong direction.
The other day the 7-year-old pointed out a āGo Trumpā banner by the side of the road (from a not-very-well-maintained house), and I told him I felt sorry for the people who put it up, because they were supporting a man who did not have their best interests at heart.
Hillary may actually be sympathetic to the Trump crowd and not just being polite? She is teaching kindness in the face of unkindness. Turning the other cheek and having hope even for the hopeless.
That said, following Trump gets you labeled with a giant L on your forehead and a total loss of credibility.
I remember seeing Romnerd/Ryan stickers on a few cars and as soon as they got pummeled, those were gone. There are still more McCain/Palin stickers around.
Point is, those suckers bailed and pretended not to be the fools that they were and so will go the exodus of Trump/? supporters after the sound thrashing come November.
And Iām on the wagon that says that these arenāt ādog whistlesā. Trump is openly hating and demeaning many groups. The only dog whistle is the white superiority underlying tone that attracts all that crowd to him. Otherwise, he just says things out loud about other races and genders.
As always, you are 100% wrongāand you cannot offer any proof to support your risible smear of Hillary.
