Voter says he was uninformed when he cast his vote for Trump

WTF. He said "I was uninformed when I voted..." That's on him - in this internet age, no one should be uninformed. Now he has no healthcare. 🙄

5. ZERO SYMPATHY!

You did not have to be educated to see the hateful bIle Trump spewed was wrong and realize that this Billionaire Populist was a fraud.

When the GOP said "Let the auto industry go bankrupt", but President Obama said no and bailed it out, you did not need a college degree to see who was on your side.

When the President gave us Obama Care and the GOP tried to gut it 30 + times without offer an alternative, you did not have to read poltical theory to know one group sided with the insurance companies and the other was trying to help people.

Perfect victims for the propaganda. Fox tells them how things are, minorities are dangerous, immigrants taking the jobs, terrorist are working with Obama, whatever. But they swallow it hook, line, and sinker, and it is no accident. The slant on the stories is always designed to make the viewer angry and afraid. It keeps them watching for hours and very useful in opinion control, they manipulate opinion with their BS stories.

If we want to get these Americans back on track we have to be able to bust up the media and enforce some standards in journalism. Separate the ad departments from the news departments would be a nice start.

I know none of this means crap for as long as we are plagued by Trump. This is what explains how they can get this guy to vote against his interest. They brainwashed his ass!

... where candidates rely on "whistle-stop campaigns", making speeches from the back of a train in hopes of reaching out to voters.

We have the internet. There is NO excuse for being an ill-informed voter. "The candidate didn't campaign in my area" is NO excuse. "I didn't really understand what the candidate stood for" is NO excuse. "I didn't know that the guy I voted for plans to take away my Obamacare coverage" is NO excuse.

And "I voted the way my church faith-leaders directed me" is THE most pitiful excuse imaginable.

47. Reasons and excuses are two diff things.being stupid and/or not paying

attention is a reason working class ppl vote rethug.

So is racism and sexism.

The question is, i think, is there anything we can do to change it, other than the slow game of waiting for demographics to change?

I think IRV is something that would allow rhe idealists to register their displeasure by voting third party, while at the same time helping a dem get in rather than throwing away their vote. It gets brought up fdom time to ti.e but never holds interest. I don't know how we'd ever get it, though. It's about as likelyas getting rid of the EC.

I know prejudiced attitudes can be corrected on an individual basis, but i can't see how we would attack it large scale.

We should have learned the lesson from this election that relying solely on firing up the base leaves precious little margin for error, seeing as how trumps margi s in his swing state victories were small.

What do tou think we should do?

17. And whose fault is it exactly that he is uninformed?

Not mine. Not the Democrats. Not really the Republicans. But his own fault.

I just wish that only those who voted for Trump could be the recipients of no more ACA, cuts in Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security. Losing their jobs to even more outsourcing. Unfortunately, we all get to suffer equally from those things.

I have nothing but contempt for people like him. It was HIS responsibility to inform himself about the issues before casting his vote.

And he's a union member, clearly oblivious to the benefits unions have given all of us. Maybe he could move to China and get a job in a factory where they have nets so that the employees there who jump off to kill themselves can't even do that. Maybe then he'd begin to comprehend what unions have accomplished.

Oh, and I sincerely hope he has a pre-existing condition that means he can't get healthcare under whatever the new system is, and that he dies a painful, lingering death.

And no, I'm not remotely ashamed of what I've posted. People like him deserve it, because he did not give a flying fuck about anyone else until the last week or two.

We've long been on the receiving end of that, especially with the truly vile things that have been said about President Obama, his wife, and daughters. And even at our collective worst, we will come nowhere near the offensive garbage they've come up with.

31. The first wrong thing he said:

"I am not stupid." Everything--everything he said and did leading up to his vote was obviously, horribly, almost criminally stupid: he voted the way his "church faith-leaders" directed him; he watched Fox News exclusively. Did he never hear of the Internet? Or, lacking access to that, newspapers, other channels? It's nobody's fault but his that he was "uninformed and unaware" and (get this!) "deceived."

He sleepwalked through the election. What he can do now, since he asks, is to join those of us who plan to resist at every opportunity. Get involved. Write to his Congresspeople. Join the Democratic party and volunteer for it.

Above all, stop being stupid!

32. Didn't the overt racism, misogyny, and fascism bother him just the tiniest bit

in the months-long lead-up to the election? Was it only when he realized the now-unfettered GOP would be able to abolish the ACA, as they have been trying to do with dozens of votes ever since it was passed, that he saw a problem? I don't get what it is that he suddenly understands, other than that his own personal situation may be affected. And since he is a veteran, he could receive his healthcare through the VA, so even that sounds odd.

53. Trump himself is poorly informed.

The man was a legit birther FFS.

Take away his celebrity and enormous bank balance, and Trump is no different than the morons who attend his rallies.

FOX News is a misinformation machine.

63. This wasn't well done, but THIS IS WHAT YOU POST ON COMMENT SECTIONS.

Russia has paid troll armies posting smack about Democrats.

Republicans do it for free.

It's time for Democrats and Liberals to fight back. For free.

This wasn't very convincing. But with a bit of tweaking, it would sound better.

Spare me the outrage fellow DU'ers. Human beings are hardwired to love narratives and story-telling.

It convinces people in a way that a rational argument does. And that goes for ALL of us. Liberals, Conservatives and FOX zombies.
