    Poll is right. Wording is wrong. It's bigotry. They voted out of bigotry and racism and white supremacy.https://twitter.com/mic/status/863549700590510080 …

        Fear of diversity, eh? Bullshit. Trump's tacit encouragement of belligerent racism will stain our country for generations.

        Certainly not new, it's as old as America itself, but this recent and rapid normalization of it on a broad scale has definitely shocked me.

        This is not normal. Racism, of course, is as American as apple pie, but the data is clear, racists are re-emboldened in Trump's America.

        I empathize with frustration toward johnny-come-lately "white allies", but you're oversimplifying. Trends do matter, most significantly.

        Media needs to stop softening the language. Call racism and bigotry what it is.

        So many ways the media normalizes racism. "Xenophobia," "fear of diversity," "cultural anxiety," .... What's next, "skin color stress?"

        People need to stop blaming her. Those that voted for trump got us here. Trump colliding with Russia got us here! Blame pushing is old.

        Trump colliding with Russia to become president is to blame. He's a cheat and a liar and does not even know basic work history.

        There are too many high ups involved and the rep are getting to do whatever they want so they will ride this for as long as they can.
