    So the question of why Trump won is not because most Trump voters made an informed decision.. Instead it can be credited to a combination of two things. First, conservative and Russian propaganda is very effective at convincing people of outright lies.. Second, Many Trump voters are obviously gullible and ignorant and so uninformed that they don't even know the unemployment rate went down during Obama's presidency and over half don't even know if the stock market went up during Obama.

    In reality, the propaganda is so effective, only because the Trump voters are so gullible and ignorant, and chugging the propaganda Kool-Aid. I believe the term for that is "useful idiot"

    This is what you get when so many Americans have been brainwashed that it is the mainstream media that is lying, when actually it is the right wing media, and social media, that is lying to them. But that is what good propaganda does, gets people to not trust sources of truth and facts, and peddles lies that appeal to the base instincts of anger and hatred.

    Hillary was the victim of an "unpresidented" propaganda campaign by a foreign power and its lackies. I'm sure at some point, we'll get over the fact that the Trump cabinet is filled with russophiles, but being upset about this political coup by Russia is understandable. Of course, many people are upset at this dissolution of American hegemony so expect the civil unrest to worsen as more and more people come to realize that they've been snookered by charlatan with a really bad haircut.

    Being that Hillary won the popular vote - as the liberals never stop reminding us - doesn't that mean that whatever Putin did or did not do either worked in Hillary's favor or did not work at all?

    Go cry somewhere else snowflake. Did you try the local university? I hear they're handing out puppies and hot chocolate.

    PS: If it weren't for Commiefornia Trump would have won the popular vote by at least 1.5 million. But thank the USA for the electoral college!

    Yep! Just today Putin's number one pawn, Donald J. Trump mentioned that he was going to expand America's nuclear capabilities. That's exactly what Putin wants.

    What's comical is Trump has already put himself out there to ally with nations and help create jobs and he hasn't even been sworn in yet. In other words he's already doing what Obama didn't and couldn't do and the leftists HATE it.

    Lol, liberals cannot be bothered with common sense. All they know is the narrative their masters have shoved down their throats, and are incapable of independent thought.

    I have been thinking about how to help Liberals get over their massive butt hurt regarding the election.

    I think I have it! It's what Liberals crave! Acknowledgement!

    It may very well be, having us waste resources and make ourselves look bad to the world can't help but gladden his heart. Putin didn't help Trump because he thought Trump would help him but because he thinks Trump is stupid, and will do stupid things to hurt America, which he is.

    You missed a rather important one: 100 percent of Trump voters believe that Donald Trump would make a better president than Hillary Clinton. (Isn't democracy fun?)

    Well, here's the deal. Let's say for the sake of argument that the Russians were the source of the Wikileaks. (Assange says that they weren't, but let's just put that aside for the time being and say that they were). So are you trying to say that it would have been better if the American electorate was not made aware of all of the shenanigans taking place within the DNC? Do you believe that any of the information brought to light was not factually correct? Because if the information was factually correct (and by all indications it is), and if the information was helpful in preventing a corrupt party / candidate from winning the presidency (and by all indications it was), shouldn't we be thanking the folks who saw to it that that information made it out to we voters? The really shameful thing is that in the past, it was investigative journalism that was relied on to get to the bottom of things like this, where today we have to rely on Wikileaks. I am thankful that Wikileaks was able to uncover the information that they did; in the absence of this happening, Hillary Clinton would probably have won the presidency, and given the Wikileaks information, that would have been travesty.

    Hillary would have lost anyway. Most of the media barely covered the leaks, partly because they were exposed as a bunch DNC lapdogs. When they did cover them it was to question their ties to Russia, like good little lapdogs. Hillary lost because she sucks. But the left wants to lie to themselves and blame the Russians. Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

    As opposed to a man who wants torture beyond waterboarding, who says he loves war, who wants to kill innocent people en masse [the families of terrorists]. a man who says he wants to use nukes [and now has called for the first expansion of nukes since Reagan brought us from the brink], a man who tells lies at a rate of 23 per hour, a man who incites violence and divisiveness, a man who got rich by screwing hard working contractors and bilking people out of money for a phony college...

    Hillary made one highly offensive comment. Trump made perhaps hundreds. But you don't care. Why? Do you really think most Mexicans are rapists and drug dealers? [not all mind you, Trump made that concession]

    I understand why people hate Hillary. What I CANT understand is why you don't hate Trump. Are blue-sky promises really all it takes to undo the evil he has expressly stated he wants? Torture, internment camps, attacks on the free press, the love of war, what about this guy is not horrifying?

    Are we really a nation of torturers now? Do you know how many American soldiers have died to defeat this sort of tyranny. It is a betrayal all of those who died for the cause of justice.

    But we did, except it had nothing to do with Russia. We voted against the corrupt establishment, ruling elites, lobbyists and special interests destroying the country, the libs voted for the plutocracy and the oligarchy.

    Thanks, we are still celebrating and each absurd liberal hysterical strawman thread like this OP is music to our ears. :roflol:

    So due to negative propaganda MORE people voted for Hillary. Hmmm. Wait....who was working against her again? And liberals think they're so educated. You're being fooled AGAIN by the MSM who actually were the ones running the propaganda campaign against Trump.

    Wow...so if thats all true then looks like you guys really really effed up by running hillary. It was lefties who didnt come out to vote for her. They bailed. Feelin the bern now arent ya?
    We dont hate trump because we dont think with emotions. Thats a beta male thing. Peace through absolute power works. Thats what trump is doing. And sorry I prefer we blowtorch terrorists to get the information we need to prevent more attacks....the left prefers we coddle them and hide them in our cities and give them free housing and a monthly salary. You are upset with trump? Ok them blame yourselves, 8 years of obama failing at everything and telling us its better, dividing the nation and allowing terrorsts...well he cant even call them radical islamic terrorist can he...then you ran freakn Hillary the single most candidate carrying more baggage than any other in our history..while at the same time screwing over a wildly popular candidate with no baggage...sanders...who most likely would have crushed trump. I told you guys this in july. ...go back and check. But....ya didnt listen. So please stop whining...you guys are the reason Trump won not us...YOU. I mean how dumb, how fantastically dumb of the left to spit on the sanders crowd and then tell them to just accept it. But you guys were just so smug and confident werent ya? Insert hillary shimmy here.

    "Nice job, Donald Trump voters! You became Vladimir Putin’s pawns"
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Nah, Russia has been peddled by US/Western establishment propaganda as a "boogey man" for 70 years, and it's been swallowed by little old ladies and lefties!
    Russia is on the other side of the planet and could therefore never invade America, but the lefties still go running for their "safe spaces" where they sit rocking on their haunches sucking their thumbs and breaking out their coloring books and comfort blankets..:)
    This picture says it all; there's that little lefty granny ranting and raving against Putin with eyes a-popping, while Don stands coolly in the background like a towering colossus, calm, collected, regal, holy, majestic, fearless, Presidential..;)

    PS- Hill would have been more at home here instead of the White House-

    Could you use a little butt paste for all that butt hurt? It doesn't cost much at Target.
