5. He is right and winning the next round should not include coddling a message

for anyone who agrees with his hateful messages. The best we can do is say, NO. He is wrong and this is why. Hillary won the popular vote, that fact should not be lost in our message. Her message was not about causing racial division, not one of causing economic inequality. He is a horrid man who will make things worse for most Americans. How could they not see it if they did not agree with him?
