I Know why Trump was Elected (satire)
No one wants to hear I told you so, but I told you so.
Twelve years ago, I realized that democracy in America could not survive if Straight White Males were not prohibited from voting. In a column in The Huffington Post, I asked Should certain classes of men, specifically Straight White Men, be allowed to vote?
My reasoning: Asked what qualities they desired in in a President, the top choices for women and non-straight white males were: judgement, intelligence, leadership, empathy. Straight white men chose: knowledge of NFL rules; laughs at fart jokes; tolerates no flak from foreigners and women; a guy would like to have a beer with and helps me score cocaine.
With such different values, the voting gap is no surprise. The strutting, truculent, and misunderinformed George W. Bush ran 15 points higher among straight men than other voters in 2000 and 13 points higher in 2004. Polls showed Romney enjoyed a similar edge.
