    That hardly makes it immune from groupthink....and groupthink means the whole is less than the sum of the parts. People tend to assimilate and take on shared values and beliefs to their neighbors and community in order to be accepted. And that is fundamental to the United STATES, that major metros don't dictate how people live in the other 99% of the country.

    Lol intellectual. Like Chicago. We should just let coastal elites run elections. You get dumber and dumber everyday.
    I’d call you retarded but that would be disrespectful to actual mentally handicapped people

    Chicago is a metropolitan area that is ethnically and intellectually diverse.

    What difference, at this point, does it make?

    Hillary lost and I'm glad she did. I'm completely satisfied with the fact that I did not vote for her.
    Trump won and I'm not glad that he did. I'm completely satisfied with the fact that I did not vote for him.

    That's probably the common thread with most of us on this forum.

    In reply to Isador:
    A shithole? Look up the demographics of it. Look up the demographics of it. Wonder why the schools are terrible too? (Hint: poverty)
    I’ve never argued SC is full of geniuses or that it’s “full of intellectual diversity”. Your electoral college argument is dumb

    It’s a shithole. Same reasons the schools are bad in most of the state (poverty). I’m not the one saying it’s full of “intellectual diversity”.

    Pretty much this. I have no regrets that Hillary is not currently our president.

    congratulations, you helped elect the least qualified, most ethically challenged and tempermentally unsuited President in our History.

    That is because it may not be, while Chicago is.

    Least qualified? WTF does that mean? Per the constitution he is qualified. What do you want.....a career politician?

    You can lie to yourself if you wish but
    with our two party system, any member of the electorate who did not vote for Hillary Clinton facilitated the election of Donald Trump.

    given the choice between an ill informed, morally bankrupt, blowhard clown and a career politician. I take the second option.

    You mean like how Abraham Lincoln got elected?

    So now Donna Brazile is 180-ing and saying that she never claimed that the 2016 dem primary was rigged. So, I imagine that she's being heavily leaned on now. But that's beside the point. She can't deny what is already printed and quoted DIRECTLY.

    What a joke ... just, what a joke that the dem party is.

    Tom Perez, the DNC chair, is also refusing to admit that it was rigged. Anybody surprised?

    I am actually wildly impressed at the arrogance to think that people will buy this shit. I know we say this country is dumb, but not that dumb. Will Warren backtrack her confirmation of rigging as well?

    Gotta admit, if we weren't $20T in debt, watching the DNC and GOP one up each other with their ineptitude would be highly entertaining.

    not exactly analogous, 4 major candidates in 1860 election. But more importantly
    Donald Trump, you're no Abraham Lincoln.

    From what I'm seeing from actual progressives - they are screaming "gaslighting" and are now to the point where they are admitting that this kind of thing is exactly why Trump won the election. I guess that is one thing that I agree with progressives on lol (oh gawd)
    Lots of outrage going on and the dems are cementing a loss for 2020 IMO.

    Cleveland Heights ---- highly diverse in its mix of color, religion, economic status ............went for crooked Clinton by 94% - 6%.


    MEGA liberal, urban, group-think.


    Sick.
