General Discussion

This may be an unpopular opinion but I don’t think it made a difference at all, let alone the difference. Piss won for a few reasons. He used populist language and was an outsider and because Hillary wasn’t that popular, was worn down from two and a half decades of attacks and was the ultimate insider.

But the biggest reason he won was because he inspired people to vote. I can’t tell you how many people I know that never cared about politics at all and never voted in their lives who went to vote for him. That happened all across the country and was enough to put him over the top where it mattered.

The people who were mad about Comey not charging Secretary Clinton for the server bullshit were the same people happy about the re-opening of the investigation. They were also the same people who couldn’t care less about the Access Hollywood tapes. The people who voted for her were always going to vote for her and the people who voted for him were always going to vote for him. Comey’s action didn’t move the needle. All those new voters, particularly in the so-called “Blue Wall” states were the difference. The pollsters didn’t see them and conventional wisdom, for reasons that escape me, said America would never vote a person such as he into the White House.

I think people forget what this country is and always has been.
