2024: 69% of White men, no degree, voted Krasnov.

37. Agreed with one exception

I don't think the Democratic Party advocates for raising wages, strengthening unions and protecting Medicaid to appeal to those in question. They (we) do it because it's a foundational part of the the Democratic philosophy.

What would be great to see is the Party do is apply some psyops. You can't get those people to love Dems, but you can drive a wedge between them and their beliefs by convincing them they've been listening to the wrong white people since they view everything threw a "cultural" lens rather than a policy lens. I think they can be convinced that dead Limbaugh who was wealthy bamboozled them into abandoning their interests in favor of tax breaks for the rich. They should be told that the white people with or without college degrees who are doing better all live happily in Blue States. It doesn't need to be a data-driven message (it doesn't have to be totally true). it should just be repeated repeated repeated.

In spite of where we are, I've been encouraged by seeing more liberal white rural social media personalities over the past couple of years. It pokes holes in the "coastal elite" myth. Libs are everywhere, perhaps outnumbered in some places, but still everywhere.
