  1. [Here is] the exit poll data the chart came from; you can draw your own conclusions. Mine was that a lot of Riches, or really, a lot of high earners, voted for tRump because he promised them a 15% tax rate on pass-through income from their law or medical practices.

    Also too: note to smokefilledroommate: Thanks for putting up the graphic. I got an email with your message saying you'd done so, but the comment doesn't appear here. Is that some magical moderator trickery, or more IntenseDebate weirdness?

    1. I had tried to do it earlier, but it wasn't cooperating on my iPad and I got busy at work. Smokey may well have just emailed you. We see everyone's email address and IP address in the dashboard

    2. I don't know why you would have been alerted.. I simply fixed the image and posted a bunch of crap about how I remembered Hillz and the early '90's and promptly deleted it, like I always do sometimes. : D (There was Paul Tsongas stuff in there).

        Graphic up. Sheesh– I feel like I grew up with Hillz. I remember 1992 being [somehow] "the year of the woman". I remember buying TIME because she was on the cover. I didn't like her husband, I liked Paul Tsongas. But whatever, I voted for her, and I'm considered an uneducated muthafucka right about now.

        So the fact that it had a "Go to comment" link in it made me think it was a comment. No problem, just curious.
