Time to open your eyes and gain a little perspective.

If race wasn't a factor, why did Trump mostly win white votes, while doing poorly amongst minorities? Why did whites of all socio-economic groups vote for him, if Clinton appealed to elites? Shouldn't she had won the upper-class white vote? Why did Clinton win more of the poor's votes overall than Trump? Why did the same white working men sick and tired of the establishment vote for the same establishment Republican incumbents who have been calling the shots for the past six years and who voted for the trade deals that apparently hurt this group (even Obama got his votes for TPPA from
Republicans; Democrats opposed him)? Working minorities have been the most hurt by neoliberalism. Why didn't black people come out for Trump if his win was driven by working-class people sick of the establishment?
