It’s a good thing that Trump is going to win both the popular & EC votes far beyond the Muslim-/Palestinian-/Arab-Americans’ numbers, because that makes placing blame on them ring hollow.

If the Dems can’t beat a clown like Trump, that’s squarely on them. But they spent the last eight years blaming their losses on anyone but themselves, so I wouldn’t assume they’ll start looking in the mirror now.

don't expect it: they've been doing stupid shit like this since 1984 (at the least) when they could have used the thousands of deaths at reagan's hands against him; but decided not to go too "political" with that human sleeping pill named mondale and the apologist named ferraro and then again in 2004 with the human ent named kerry.
