I wouldn’t give Trump credit for this, the Democrats did this all on their own. HRC did a lot of the work in ‘16.

I do give Trump credit. Nobody since Reagan has drawn these voters the same way Trump did. These are pragmatic, kitchen table voters and they represent a huge voting bloc.

"A vote for a Republican is like a vote for Trump, racism, and January 6" will take them a long way, but they should probably have something else up their sleeve to appeal to working class white people. Shaming the outgroup only works if the outgroup is small enough.

I think these people can see the massive difference between how Trump was treated and how Biden is being coddled. And they don't like it. It smacks of being told what to think.

I really think it goes hand in hand with Obama and HRC and all the talk of deplorable, bible and gun clingers, etc...
