yes, too many Latino men voted for Trump. yes, too many white women voted for trump.

Let's stop focusing on them and instead focus on the real problem - white men. I'm so tired of white men getting a pass. Far more white men voted for Trump than any other demographic. Face it, one of the main problems (aside from billionaires) is white supremacy which most white men don't want to give up.
