Clinton will win easily

Well if the election was up to the under 30 crowd Clinton would have won by a landslide with over 500 electoral votes. Old people always get out and vote more though.

Trump won because the left keeps using the phrase "uneducated white males". Being condescending and accusative toward the largest demographic group in the country is a really dumb thing to do if you want to win an election.

Yeah, I thought for sure that she was going to win. Early in the night I thought that CNN was obviously trying to make the election appear closer than it really was. It took me over an hour to realize that they weren't bull ****ting for ratings. Even then I still thought Clinton would pull it out late into the night. It was shocking but in hindsight having that much confidence in a Hilary Clinton ticket was more than premature it was downright stupid.

And when the under 30 crowd grows up they too will have similar views. Then the new under 30 crowd will call them old and out of touch, etc, blah blah blah. Circle of life.

That's the funniest thing about liberals. "You just wait till hispanics take over!". "Oh when young people grow up, you better watch out!".

I don't think they will have the same views. But they will have different views than they have now, and they will for sure be just as ****ty.

Their views will change. But not all of their views, especially social issues don't usually change. Gay rights, legalization of marijuana and other issues have become the majority because younger people that have thought that for awhile are growing up. But I was more pointing out that people in this age group are upset by the results but had they voted in larger numbers it would have changed the results.

But over time there is gradual change, and it all seems like it is toward liberalism. Racism, tolerance of gays, abortion, rejection of religion, free love, whatever. Go back 50 years, 100 years. Really, is there any way that society is more conservative now than 50 and 100 years ago? The only reason "conservatives" are still around half the vote is because they are changing along with everyone else.
 
The vast majority of voters, and Americans in general, are woefully underinformed regarding the working of government. Most people hear what they hear on TV and on the radio. Media drives the education of most Americans, and for college kids it is skewed by the agenda of the intelligentsia, which is often far more skewed than even the media. This means we will really never have an educated voter base on most issues. They hear "pro-life" or "big business" or "flip-flopper" and immediately form opinions regarding the candidates based on talking points. I have always made a real effort with my kids to get them to dig into the issues, figure out what is important to them and what the candidates are saying about those issues, and form their own opinions. This year I had 3 kids old enough to vote and we had some very good conversations about things from the economy to race relations to international relations and lots in between. But in the end that is the issue.

Today's issues are not the only possible issues. They might be okay with marijuana, but they will have their own prejudices, and they will vote their own interests. We will mourn the inevitable collapse of civilization each time we don't get our way, just as we do now.
