    This tweet, from perhaps the most faithful Hillary Clinton supporter in the country, should be rejected by every Democrat in America. Sad.https://twitter.com/markos/status/901250617783468032 …

    White supremacist presidents will pardon other white supremacists. That's what happens when communities of color don't vote.

        Why is this narrative surfacing?@JoyAnnReid is also pushing it out there. Blame the victims of hate and systemic racism for this mess.

        Joy and I disagree on many things but she has NEVER blamed Trump's win on voters of color. Period.

        Is this real? Did this person just call out African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, Asians for "not voting"? 😒

        12% of Bernie supporters voted for Trump in the end and yes a lot of POC stayed home esp African Americans. All that = DGT in WH

        And 25% of hillary supporters in 2008 primary voted for John McCain. That 12% was voting for her anyways

        FALSE. A dem can't win by 8 pts when 25% of his base is voting for the other guy. It's simple math.

        that was a mistake but those have been solid blue states since the 80s. Dem candidates usually don't spend time there

        Assuming that you have the vote because it is a "solid state" shows how little you value voters. She ASSUMED she had woman vote

        She ASSUMED she had PoC vote, so never campaigned in communities and she ASSUMED she had working class vote.
