I do not see many of them voting for Biden this election.

Hilary paid the price for NAFTA in the Midwest, even though it was a Republican Idea but Bill Clinton signed it.

The coalition Obama has is gone at least certain segments of it and I doubt they will return after Trump, if there is another election.

It reminds me of the so called "Reagan Democrats" but this is much worse.

I think a large portion of white America has just lost their minds.

Its its disgusting and sadly most of them will cheer if Trump and the GOP void the election. They simply do not care about democracy they think their "white privilege" will make them immune from injustice after the demise of democracy but I got news for them, it won't.

Once this democracy is gone it will not come back.

I am a white male in his 40's and I apologize that my race is going to end democracy because of hatred and ignorance.

My wife and I are considering Canada, I never thought as an American I would ever have to consider leaving due to it turning into a dictatorship.
