I keep hearing pundits say Democrats need to do a better job reaching “working class” people.

Biden won voters in households making less than $100K by 13 points.

3. Aftermath of the southern strategy...

which is really a misnomer since it applies nationwide now. In the south, it too decades to fully pry them away from their tradition of voting for Democrats and by W in 2000 it was set in stone. Maybe it's a case of getting these people NOT to vote, because I don't think they're reachable from our perspective. Unfortunately, they will plague us for several more presidential cycles until enough die off, blunting their influence.

4. Trump rallies and COVID should be taking care of a good portion of those.

You'd think, anyway.

5. Yep, there is that.

Machiavellian of me, but anything that whittles down their numbers. It's so sad it's come to this. Screwing themselves due to their racism. Poor whites in the south have been doing that for centuries.

6. Isn't that the truth?

And they're too dumb to see it.

8. I live in Iowa, and the "Southern strategy" was clearly VERY VERY MUCH alive, if you

watched any of the campaign commercials on behalf of all of the Republican candidates both here and across the river in western Illinois.

7. If they want to cone along, so be it--what do they want david duke in Biden's

..cabinet? A kkknaziwhite supremacist outreach office in WH? What is stunning is that 70M peoole supported this racist, bugot, mysogynist, xenophobic republican party--trump, gop. Thing is is those 70M will and have benefited by democratic party policies-'but for decades, centuries they've been sold a bag of hate..hate the other..then there is this..

President Lyndon B. Johnson once said, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets] for you." Imo that describes some 70M trump voters.

9. Maybe "working class" people need to do a better job of listening to what Democrats say . . .
