The democrats are supposed to be all about being safe during COVID. I’m not complaining , it shows how relieved people are that Trump lost but if these were republicans celebrating a Trump win there would be uproar. Also shows how we will all interpret the same actions of different people depending on what we support.

Amongst these citizens are ‘working-class’ working white men and women. These citizens, sometimes referred to as the ‘left behinds’ view their world as disappearing before their eyes because of: -Mass immigration - Globalisation - Indifference towards national traditions - Stifling political correctness - Identity politics - Hyper individualism - Growing gap between rich and poor Many of them have no longer the possibility of well-paid industrial work as the old industries close and, in their place, the gig economy, minimum wages, poor working conditions with weak or no union representation. Many are suffering from intense anxiety about their looming status as a minority group in their own country. These are decent, hard-working people who are not ‘deplorables’ and should have their legitimate views respected by the political class.

Some very astute and witty people on here. Overall - It was a tough time for those who gave a ****. (Apologies too to the mods for bothering ye too) I'll be raising a glass to end what was an awful and disgusting time in American politics. Cheers. Onwards and upwards, eh?

It would be better if they didn't do it, but at least in contrast to the Trump rallies outside, everyone in this case is wearing a mask, which is of course a significant difference with regards spread.
Tell me how wrote: » GTF with your 'should have their legitimate views respected by the political class' while claiming that political correctness is stifling and Identity politics or hyper individualism is an issue. I believe you and other Trump fans believe what you have written and for me is another reason to be absolutely delighted with the result and Trump having been kicked out after 1 term.
Drumpot wrote: » I totally understand it , I’d be a staunch Biden supporter in this battle. If anything I’m just pointing out how we can let our own prejudices (Trump outdoor rallies bad) skewer our interpretations of things. Part of the issues in politics is that no side reflects on its own behaviors, it’s always pointing out the others flaws.
