    Who are you labeling "liberals" and "neo-liberals" and speaking for when you claim that they share your desire that "the global order needs to be torn down."

    Hmm. I don't know any white supremacists or neo nazi's. But I'm sure some exist.

    The RINOs of Trumpery have crapped upon traditional GOP values.

    E.g.,
    Republican deficit hawks have been vanquished by the Trumpy cuckoos.

    Look for tiki torches and stupid ****s chanting "Jews will not replace us". Those are good clues.

    1) what is a "centralized planning socialist Gov't ? This could mean a whole bunch of things.

    2) OK so your version of Traditional America is the Christian Religion - Traditional Marriage and "Liberal Sexual Habit - what ever this means"

    Since Libs are predominantly Christian - predominantly engage in traditional marriage - (no idea what you mean by liberal sexual habit so I can not comment) Your claim that Libs hate these things is false.

    It appears to have gained us more respect despite personal attitudes toward Trump.

    So you are intellectually vanquished and driven to self loathing because that is only the alternative to bigotry? Sounds sorta anorexia/bulimia to me.

    I'm accurately noting the documented devotion of neo-nazis and other white supremacists who hail Trump as their "Glorious Leader!" and "God Emperor!"

    I can't help it if my noting that undeniable truth upsets you.

    I don't care what others think. I'm not that insecure.

    Libs are descended from Christians

    but most on the far left are not Christians themselves

    So, because there were no polls in the last couple days, that is suppose to discount all the polls that showed her winning by a landslide? She had it in the bag, liberal rags were saying Trump should just give up and go home, it's already over. Maybe, just maybe, they felt there was no need to spend money on new polls when the election was a sure thing. I could give a **** less whether your poll of choice says Trump stinks or is the next coming of Christ. Polls can be biased and many are not very accurate.

    No. The preponderance of polls - whether perceived as left, right, or center - confirmed that Clinton's lead dissipated as the election approached. The variation was not based upon bias. (The Fox News Poll of 11/3-11/6 showed Clinton +4; LA Times/USC Tracking, 11/1-11/7, showed Trump +3.) Every pollster's reputation and success depends on being as accurate as possible. From a partisan perspective, it is far preferable to have your candidate slightly trailing rather than leading to prevent overconfidence that lowers turn out for that candidate.

    Nearly three million more Americans voting for Clinton did not matter because of where those votes came from, and many pollsters and much of the media focused far too much on her popular lead nationally.

    Some Trump fanatics are upset that polls consistently show that a majority of Americans agree that Trump stinks and, as a consequence, many prefer to poll only themselves, for whatever that may be worth.

    That is very likely. The zeal for Trump exhibited by his white supremacists and neo-nazis who endorsed the reality tv performer and hail him as their "God Emperor!" and "Glorious Leader!" is yooj, but there numbers are still relatively small.

    I am unaware of your anti-fascists endorsing or venerating any candidate in the manner Trump's white supremacists and neo-nazis worship him.

    These polls are meaningless.
    If you wanted to see a true picture you’d need to design a poll that mimics electoral college - poll each state separate with similar sample size and then calculate the odds of reelection. Libs are too fixated on general polls and tend to have a weak understanding of what a federation is.

    However you need to rationalize your bias, you will. The reality is that the majority of reputable polls are quite accurate. If they were not, they would not be retained by political parties, candidates, and news services.

    As you correctly note, the focus on the popular vote in presidential elections can miss the electoral college reality. It is a far easier and cheaper metric for polling organizations, but does not measure what is determinative. Separate state polls are essential.

    Christianity is still strong within the Black community but their Churches have been infiltrated by leftist Democrats.

    Your posts are still coming from some third world outpost where life in America is seems gleaned from CNN and Hollywood, through a glass darkly.

    Really?

    Perception of a nation is very important to the business. I will never ever going to do business with Israelies for example.

    What about the fact that people will kick you out, and you will have no leverage and markets.

    With no allies, the world might gang rape you for your wealth.

    Im not saying that you should not put your people first, but to don't mind what others think of you is just stupid. Just like in real life. Try imagining how successful you can be in life when all other people dislike or despise you.

    Of course they don't like him...he doesn't want America to be their piggy bank anymore. We are not their mommies. Other countries need to get it together ON THEIR OWN

    Hopefully it means the end of globalism and the end of the climate change religion.
