[ExI] trump still

[William Flynn Wallace]

Here is what I have not seen out of this group, including me:

"Buddhism teachers that anger is a form of ignorance; namely of other
people's point of view."  (NYT article by Lisa Barrett today)
Somewhere around 47% of the voters went for Trump.  Now they can't all be
bone-headed morons.  They can't all be for a silly wall or forced
emigration or some of the other ridiculous things being proposed.  They
can't all think that all the industry jobs will be coming back.  Most of
them are not white supremacists.

So why did any woman vote for a crotch-grabber?  Well, find out.
What do they think?  What do they want?  Are there ways to give it to them,
or are they just out of touch?  Ditto every Trump voter.

If we don't understand these Trump voters, if we just write them off as
imbeciles, there is no way we can attract them to us in the future,
starting with the elections in 2018.

It's time to stop bitching and blaming and do our research.
