Strange results for a racist and sexist candidate

The net is awash with Lefist claims that Trump ran a racist and sexist campaign.  But Americans as a whole clearly did not see it that way. It's just another of the habitual distortions of reality that Leftists constantly practice

[Trump] managed to win over many women and Latinos. White women, for example, voted for Trump over Clinton by a ten-point margin, according to CNN’s exit polling. Depending on which exit poll you believe, Trump may also have won anywhere from 19 percent to an astonishing 29 percent of the Latino vote, despite his anti-Latino rhetoric. Clinton’s supposed bulwark among college-educated voters also failed: White college graduates backed Trump by a 4-point margin, including 45 percent of college-educated white women.

It shouldn’t surprise us that women voted for Trump as strongly as they did: White women also voted for Romney and McCain by similar margins. But Clinton also underperformed Obama’s 2012 showing among Latino women by eight points. Clinton’s gender-based appeal not only backfired among men, but fell flat among many women. In 2016, the suburban, mostly white women Clinton tried hard to court seemingly made their decisions based on other factors.

And race? Per The New York Times’s exit poll, Trump outperformed Mitt Romney among all racial groups surveyed. Most shockingly, Trump gained fewer percentage points among whites than among other blocs of voters. Trump won only 1 percent more white voters than Romney, but bested him by 7 points among blacks, 8 points among Latinos, and 11 points among Asian Americans. These are not the numbers you would expect from a win driven primarily by white supremacist backlash.

The analysis is part of the problem. Why are voters divided into racial groups? I think viewing the population as such fosters division and jealousy. The campaign tactic then becomes pandering and offering special treatment based on group status.

Agreed Anon 2:08. They all claim a self-righteous anti-race stance but the MSM and bean-counters all segregate voters into "racial" classifications. Full-stupid hypocrisy.

If anyone wonders why Trump managed to win, it's easy. Just a quick browse on YouTube will bring up all the lying, cheating, dummy-spitting and racist treatment by Hitlery to others below her "class". It's huge.

I can totally understand the vote. Many people I call friends or people I associate with would boycott me if they knew I supported Trump in Australia let alone the US. People have been so indoctrinated by the media and beaten down by leftwing Uni students not to mention the unions. Australia will go socialist if we don't find a strong conservative leader.
