You know why white, working class voters blame “those people”? Because the Dems have given them no alternative. The Dems show apathy at best and disdain at worst to them while at the same time advocating for poor, urban minorities. Poor, working class whites are left standing there saying, “Who’s looking out for us?”…

Where did I say Sanders would have won? I merely said he was the only won advocating for the working class on the left.

This is bullshit. Those efforts you mentioned were entirely about getting poor whites to help poor blacks, not working together to help each other.

You realize there are poor white people too, right? Not all poor people live in urban housing projects. Many poor people live in rural trailer parks and ramshackle houses in Appalachia.

Cool.

First, who are you referring to when you say “you motherfuckers”? Because I didn’t vote for Trump and was horrified by his victory.

No, silly. I don’t think that, and please don’t twist my words.

No. I didn’t say that at all. Are you sure you are responding to the right person?

“[M]embers of labor unions, and unorganized unskilled workers, will sooner or later realize that their government is not even trying to prevent wages from sinking or to prevent jobs from being exported. Around the same time, they will realize that suburban white-collar workers — themselves desperately afraid of being…

Again, you are ignoring basic facts and because of that the Democrats will have a LONG slog before winning any major elections any time soon.

Bullshit.

I agree with you! It’s the Democratic Party that turned this into a race issue. Remember the day after the election, the Dems first reaction was “Oh, those awful racists voted for Trump!”

Yup. Typo.

Agreed. Democrats have won the popular vote in six of the last seven elections.

“Hey, we suck ass, but not as much as the other guys!” is not a great campaign slogan.

No, they fucking won’t. Trump will fuck them right in the ass because Trump lied to them to get their votes. Yes, they will learn the hard way, but fuck me...how about some left-wing outreach, huh?

Yes, Obama was elected BECAUSE of working class white. BECAUSE he spoke to them and they identified with him and his struggle.

I don’t disagree.

Keep telling yourself that.

This is why Democrats lose elections. Mocking and attempting to silence a huge swatch of the population. Want to know why Clinton lost? Look in the mirror.
