>they don’t actually stand for anything. I've met lots of young women who adore Hillary and would beg to differ. The woman is a feminist icon.

  Ok. Fair enough. But how does the blindness that feeds their bias any different than that which feeds say a Trump supporter. I'm not sticking up for either. But to believe one side is less ignorant than the other is fairly naive. The proles are the proles. Just because you side with one subset (because they match your beliefs) doesn't make them any less prole-y.

    I agree with you but you'll rarely get anywhere on a public forum by framing 95% of the population as suckers. Which they are, but the truth hurts.

      85% is more accurate. The 15% are the 1% plus their enablers/support/wannabes. I agree, such statements are underappreciated. But I'm not running for office so popularity isn't really my concern. It also doesn't help to be silent when faced with the current status quo. Change is painful; saying what needs to be said even more so. C'est la vie.

  Not to neglect that she actually did win the popular vote. The majority is being held to the beliefs of the minority.
