I actually was beginning to think that the article was making sense until I read this sentence:

"[Trump] called, in short, for nothing less than ethnic cleansing."

At that point, I realized that the article was nothing but propaganda. A setup intended to drive home as fact an utterly false premise.

HP almost wrote a thoughtful article, but instead, they deferred the predictable Left wing calumny until midway through the piece. What follows after that overt slander rapidly descends into hysterical race-baiting, which forcefully demonstrate to the American People the utter moral bankruptcy and distinct lack of practical ideas with which to drive this country forward.

Moreover, article ignores inconvenient truth that Donald Trump actually garnered a higher percentage of the minority vote than Mitt Romney, both in terms of Hispanics and Blacks. Thus, its central thesis lies in total shambles, collapsing under the weight of its own unhinged false assertions.

By the end, the article transforms itself into a laughable parody, and a ringing testament to the fact that the Left in this country has absolutely no clue as to how to proceed after this 2016 election debacle, which is the culmination of an ongoing process that began in 2010, and has rendered the Left increasingly irrelevant and impotent ever since.

It's a profound sign that the Left still doesn't get it, and that President Trump will be able to consolidate and expand a political and demographic realignment which will relegate the Democrat party to minority status for decades to come.

In summary, it bodes very well for the new GOP coalition, and very ill for the utterly tone-deaf Democrat party, which has nothing left but empty insults and its repudiated identity politics, all of which have repeatedly failed it over the last 6 years, to the point where the GOP now totally dominates the political landscape at all levels of government, save in a handful of coastal states which epitomize the arrogance of liberal elites.

That the Huffington Post would try to pass off such clumsy, infantile tripe as journalism is literally breathtaking.

To the Left: please, please keep peddling the putrid, divisive snake oil you're peddling, because the Democrats will cease to exist as a national party if you persist in this ignorant, lying insanity for very much longer...

The template for the next four years will be to tar Trump as much as possible with the “alt-right”,

Which is why, not to toot my own horn, but the day after Hillary's speech I posted a vanity titled "FR is NOT the Alt-Right" w/o even knowing who or what the alt-right was.

It's just the same lame brushwork they always employ. But it's important from our POV not to allow them to get away w/ it; nor w/ this "fake news" crap they're trying to roll out.

If she had spent more time campaigning and less time picking out the drapes for the oval office, she might have done better.

She was going to replace the drapes with ones matching those she was going to use for her gown for the Inaugural Ball.
