RE: Your Confirmation Bias Against Trump is Embarrassing

in #politics8 years ago

Welcome to Steemit! I really enjoyed this article for it absence of rabid partisanship. I'm really not much of an "-ist" on the political spectrum, although my leanings are probably more left than right.

In Donald Trump, America got exactly what it wanted: Shock-to-the-system change. I find it noteworthy to remember that one way of measuring a "dominant majority" in the recent election process is to consider that there were TWO activist/change agents-- Trump and Sanders-- who between them held a massive majority for "NOT the status quo." Both are essentially independents who threw their allegiances behind one of the major parties. We... ALL of us... voted for "not the status quo," and we got it.
