<<<< When Trump spoke to a crowd, he saw suckers, marks, >>>>

You are insulting the people from the rust belt states. ..........These people are desperate. They have seen their way of life disappear and they see a flood of foreign people coming in to their hometowns willing to work for less money. Sometimes a lot less. They have been abandoned by politicians from both parties until Trump came along. Bentway, what I think is critical to look at in this last election is those counties that flipped. Counties that 4 years ago voted for an African-American and this time voted for Trump. My county was one of them - I get it. I watched it happen. When you say these people are "suckers" you are insulting every one of them who are begging for things to change back the way they were. I'm with you that that's not going to happen - but what can happen is to listen to them with respect and do what you can instead of calling them "deplorables".
