2016 Postmortem

(30,481 posts)14. It doesn't make his point at all.
Your rebuttal is a complete deflection. Over fifty recs for what you and I agree is a highly racist and bigoted op. Not one rec on that list is a Clinton supporter.
Your attempt to broad brush, that is in line with the deception of the op, really provides no benefit and ignores reality.
One of us isn't making an extremely flawed point by way of broad brush.
This was really close to being an excellent op. They used race in an unsavory fashion and ruined it.

Well done, Ken. False attacks and accusations disguised as a "thank you" message.
