what you did to Sean's post is no more than another form of graffiti, humble or arrogant, my opinion is that's the real TRUTH here.

Are you a writer by profession? I've rarely seen a piece so well written even among the professions that depend on their ability to write to feed the family and keep a roof over their heads.

A damn fine piece of writing sir!
Would you mind if I shared it on Facebook?
You are free to share it.
No, I'm no professional writer (though, like most I do have to write for my profession).
Thanks for the compliments (all); I don't accept them well, but I'm touched.

Very well written and right on the mark. Most liberals just don't get it. It will be interesting to see how they attempt to raise their party from the ashes. I sincerely hope this election will put this country on a different trajectory and we will continue to embrace the values of the past, the values that made this country great in the first place.

Generally agree. Why Trump won- The economy, stupid.
I was listening today to Bob Davis of WSJ and Lisa Pruitt of UC Davis on NPR. They both basically agree on why Trump won the election, and especially why the populace in the “rust belt” voted the way they did. It wasn’t primarily about groping, email servers, gun rights, the Supreme Court and a host of other issues.
James Caravelle hung a sign at Bill Clinton’s campaign headquarters that said. 1.Change vs more of the same. 2. The economy, stupid. 3. Don’t forget health care. Clinton won due to dissatisfaction of the recession under George H. Bush.
Obama message was hope and change on the coattails of economic downturn under George W. Bush.
Many people who voted for Obama twice this time around voted for Trump. . It was once again about wanting change, jobs and last but not least- The economy, stupid.
Well, that’s my soap box speech to carry me through the next four years.

No, you only get part of it, and a small part. It's not just the economy; it goes far deeper than that, and you choose NOT to understand those points because it would cause you to call into question the leftist ideology you believe in.
