It's always the fault of someone else with the Liberals.
Liberals have the shitty end of the stick right now, because they got thrown in their own vat of shit. We have the stick now so try to enjoy it.

Only two of the variables I looked at were statistically significant: authoritarianism, followed by fear of terrorism, though the former was far more significant than the latter.
He didn't look at marriage? Being married is the strongest predictor of support for Trump.

Having a Job is another qualifier.
March last year, most working Deomcrats I knew down here were voting for Hillary.
By October 31, they said they weren't even voting. According to my Nader 2000 vote rebuke from the Libtards.
That's the same as voting for the Winner.
Why aren't Trump supporters celebrating about all the wonderful things that 45 has done,
on his first day.
The Wall.
Repeal.
Affordable insurance for all Americans.
Millions of high paying jobs.
And all his other MIRACLES & no scandals to boot
He's solved all the problems so he can golf the rest of his term,
which he assuredly will.
The country should be shut down from all the Red MAGA caps
in the streets celebrating & dancing,because Trump.
This is bullshit since everything the left stands for these days is 1000 times more authoritarian than the right. The left are the hardcore authoritarians.

@Patrick
There have been many analyses with different conclusions about predictors of support for TRump versus CLinton.
In statistics the importance of whether it really is a simple random sample, and the way the questions are asked are extremely important. In the end, if you find the results unbelievable, check who ran the survey and how.
Does it really seem possible that being married is a better predictor of voting for Trump than being an uneducated white male in Tennessee ? Well of course that wasn't one of the variables that mairriage was compared against, I'm sure it wasn't compared to white/uneducated either.
I would bet my life that being republican is a better predictor of Trump support than being married.
There is a reason for the existence of the expression "statisitics lie," but even the authors of the study don't claim that marriage is the best indicator. THey claim it's the best of the indicators they considered (in what was obviously a seriously flawed analysis)

I have to assume you're referring to the 3% of the left that the SJWs represent ?

If they were only 3% it would be no big deal but they have taken over their parties in most Western countries. Trying to thing who the last common sense Democrat was. Maybe JFK?

Yes +1000
People always like to accuse others of doing the SAME FUCKING THING THEY ARE DOING THEMSELVES!!!! And Leftists are the biggest offenders. Want to know their real agenda? Just read what they accuse the opposition of doing. This is just exactly like a confessional.

What I call authoritarians on the left are a very small percentage.
When Obama overturned the North Carolina ruling about restrooms for children that identify as the other gender, he was trying to protect literally a few children from ignorance, he wasn't trying to promote gender confusion. He wasn't being an SJW.
But that did provide RW hate radio with a ton of ammo to get the millions of ignorant dimbulbs in to a tizzy about basically nothing.

The way you guys define authoritarian and the way I do are very different. You think that when the government doesn't leave how quickly we transition to green energy totally 100% up to the coal and oil industry, it's authoritarian.
People always like to accuse others of doing the SAME FUCKING THING THEY ARE DOING THEMSELVES!!!!
Do you guys even know what an authoritarian personality is ?

Maybe being a married man and actually wearing the pants in the family is the strongest predictor of support for Trump.

Your girls first of course.
Totally missed the point. I'll explain it like a 5-year old:
Female Critics of Trump
Criticize him for a private remark that is also generally truthful
Made Public by a backstabbing little Bush Snit
Then they go on stage
And publicly perform - indeed their schtick depends on-
Grinding their non-existent waify ass in a thong to crowds of overwhelmingly teenage and pre-teen girls
Or making jokes that wholly depend on stories of the permasingle alkie ass getting drunk all the time
Then they go back to criticizing Trump for being a horrible influence on Young Girls.
It's like Sam Kinison saying Bill O'Reilly yells too much.
When Obama overturned the North Carolina ruling about restrooms for children that identify as the other gender, he was trying to protect literally a few children from ignorance, he wasn't trying to promote gender confusion. He wasn't being an SJW.
What was he trying to "protect" the kids from? You go to the bathroom of your (current, some have gender surgery and hormone therapy at some point in their life) biological sex, you take a stall or urinal, pull down your pants and do you deed. Common sense. What Obummer did was the deranged overreach of a SJW. If a government feels so "strongly" about this topic the right course of action would have been to get approval from the voters to add a 3rd all-gender bathroom to places that need it and pay them for their expense.

Funny thing is that here in CA most places have a women's bathroom and a unisex/disabled bathroom and because of that gender discrimination against men the line for the men's bathroom is usually much longer. But since Obummer's SJW directive any man can avoid the line and start taking leaks and dumps in the women's bathroom as the only thing that matters is what one currently identifies as. Many men have taken advantage of this and the women are NOT happy. There's an increased rate of skirmishes in front of the bathroom area. Thanks, Obummer!

How very Trumpian of them.

(cough bullshit cough) What establishments/public facilities in California are you witnessing this at? Do you even know what the 2017 bathroom law for CA did?
It's like Sam Kinison saying Bill O'Reilly yells too much.
America loses a lot when it moves the Presidential bar down into the gutter with the likes of Miley Cyrus. Your argument seems to be that decorum and standards are phony anyway. I strongly disagree.

Being married is a stronger predictor of being a potential Trump supporter than being White? I find that hard to believe.
Whites made up 70% of the active votes and 58% supported Trump. His supporter demographics are seen to be around 90% white.

Obama fucked up.
Unisex single stall bathrooms for all.
End of story.

Pretty much every restaurant/bar that has this setup. Have taken advantage of it a couple of times myself. Why do you not believe it? Talked to couple of brosefs by the restrooms who were thinking along the same lines. Some girls are actually cool with it. Btw there is no argument against this:
Obama fucked up.

End of story.
He should have paid for unisex bathrooms. Instead he used his executive overreach in an unconstitutional manner to turn something that wasn't a problem at all to begin with into a clusterfuck. What's next, forcing gyms and and swimming pools to allow any biological male into female locker rooms via executive order?

I guess this is a repeat, but I think we know it's true. Possibly worth a reread. We've got some extremely strong authoritarians around here. TPB is so in touch with his inner authoriarian, that he likes to joke about sending liberals off to gulags.
