Is not it a bit late for anti-Trump protesters?
Many of these protesters, especially college students, and liberals have a chance to stop Trump at ballot box but they chose to stay home. Trump got only 1 % more white vote than Mit Romney. It is the liberals who decided to stay home and put Trump in White House. Why protest now?
Interesting statistics from Washington post on White votes. In 1984, Ronald Reagan won the white vote by 20 points on his way to a 525 electoral vote smashing of Walter Mondale. Mitt Romney matched that 20-point victory in 2012 while losing relatively convincingly to President Obama. On Tuesday, Trump one-upped them both — literally. He won the white vote 58 percent to 37 percent.
The white vote also continued its decline as a percentage of the overall voter pool. In 1984, whites made up 86 percent of the total electorate. That number was 72 percent in 2012. And 70 percent in 2016
