People are saying this election shows how the country is racist; 80% of voters never cross party lines, so really those that are independent decided on this result. So why did independents vote for Trump over Hillary? I have to go with the old saying 'actions speak louder than words', and Hillary's actions scared these people to vote for Trump. I never heard an independent say anything good about either candidate; nice words only came out of people from the far left or far right and would never cross party lines.
