Obviously a reprobate, but I deeply dislike this "economic anxiety" meme used by liberals to argue that any person who voted for Trump or abstained is an evil racist rather than admit that their strategy of pumping up St Hilary of Clinton was flawed.

I don't think that's the point of the meme. It's to poke fun at how people, particularly the media, go out of their way to not point out the obvious of how racial animus motivates a non-insignificant portion of Trump's base and instead seek alternative explanations. How many liberals on here would actually be willing to claim that Hillary was the flawless, beautiful candidate we had all been waiting for other than Landslide Lyndon? Support for her was largely based as a counter to the alternative.

Um, I never said Clinton was the perfect candidate (there is no such thing anyway).
But I certainly thought she was much better than Sanders and Trump.

Not to shock anybody, but white racists did exist before 2016 and have been voting overwhelmingly Republican since at least 1972. There seems to be this myth that Trump galvanized all these white racists into voting R, but I’m pretty sure these people would’ve been voting for anyone with the R next to their name. The fact is that your newfound heroes John McCain and Mitt Romney won white racists as well, but that seems to be okay with you because they lost their elections.

There also wasn't a spike in hate crimes and hate group rallies after McCain and Romney won their votes either.

There was, but the spike was from the left so that was all well and good.

Uhh...what?   What left wing "hate group" spiked after Romney's lose?  I'd love to hear this...
