Sorry, Liberals. Bigotry Didn’t Elect Donald Trump.
The contention that Americans chose Trump for his racist or sexist views is wrong; many voted for him despite that.Eventually the composition of the Trump coalition may become clear.
It makes little difference now.
We will see how things develop.
There will be more than enough pain for all.

Trump Assails Obama Over U.N. Action on Israeli Settlements
On Twitter, the president-elect said the Obama administration was treating Israel with “total disdain and disrespect.”"If a single state solution is chosen there will be a choice between a democratic Israel and a Jewish Israel.
A single state cannot be both."
A single state of Palestine means a genocide.
A two state solution is anathema to both sides.
My thought is for a democratic Israel.
