What's this?

That attitude is just white establishment navel-gazing


Trump turned out enough white working class voters to balance out his loss of traditional Republican voters who found him repugnant. He ended up with basically the same vote share as any standard-issue Republican.

Democrats don't need to poach Trump's new voters to win. They need to reach the voters that went Obama/Obama/stay home.
