Decided to make this an OP re: Trump Voters

[Coventina]

I know, this is probably flogging a dead horse, but I am officially sick and tired of the "we must reach out to them" mentality.

Here is what I posted in another thread, and I will repost this in every thread going forward:

They voted for a person who was SHOWN TIME AFTER TIME to be a liar, a sex criminal, a racist, and someone who every day demonstrated that he was stunningly unqualified for the job.

Both Hillary and Bernie were out there EVERY DAY proving him wrong, unqualified, perverted, racist, a misogynist, and putting forth a positive, strong program to move America forward.

Trump was out there every day spouting hate, racism, misogyny, ignorance, filth, and blatant lies. And they flocked to him.

I'm done with those folks. Done. If you can reach them, awesome. I will gladly admit I was wrong that they were unreachable.

But right now, I am too exhausted, frightened, and angry to even think about "reaching out" to people who voted for the KKK's endorsed candidate. They have given every indication that they are after ME and either deporting me or depriving me of my rights as an American citizen.

Deplorables.

Actually two words: Deplorable dipshits.

[JI7]

2. also look at what they themselves say

That article on andy griffiths town is mostly people complaining about blacks, lack of religion .

They even complained about divorce and not wanting to be like ny. But look at what they voted for.

No complaints about tpp or other trade.

3. I agree...

And I will never forgive the repugs for the hate and disrespect they showed President Obama every day for eight years. I have and will give no respect to anyone who voted for the Communist.

4. I agree 100%. I'm sick to death of the pleas to reach out to Trump voters.

They're hateful and ignorant. If saying so makes me "elitist", so be it. Better elitist than deplorable.

5. they are completely brainwashed

you cannot reach them (even if you wanted to)

[Bettie]

6. You're right

to put it bluntly:

They CHOSE to vote for the candidate of the KKK.

They CHOSE to vote for a man who appears to be incapable of telling the truth.

They CHOSE hatred over their fellow citizens of the US.

We don't need to reach out to these people. They are unreachable.

They hate us. Not just the people of color, the gays, the disabled, etc. They hate all of us, every one of us.

But they love their new Orange Overlord. Hail Dear Orange Leader.

[Coventina]

7. Ha! I love it! "Hail Dear Orange Leader."

[JI7]

8. they even like and agree with the Russian Hacking because it helped Trump

these people would rather a foreign white power take over live in a country that is fair and equal for all.

[libtodeath]

9. I want his supporters to be mocked and ridiculed

no amount of misery is enough for what they have done to us.

11. +1000

[kairos12]

10. There is no accommodation. Not today. Not ever.

[jmg257]

12. Screw em - they get what they wanted for the next 4 yeatrs...let them own it. n

[Coventina]

14. So?

It doesn't make their actions any less despicable.

[oasis]

15. Deplorable dipshits knew exactly what Trump was all about and

what they were voting against. They acted out of hatred.

[AgadorSparticus]

16. I agree. With all the deeply rooted racism, I don't see that changing with a "reachout"

Or commercials or psa's. It is ingrained. For generations. I love the possibility of a kumbaya, but I am realistic enough to know that is a pipe dream.
