Why have some decided the only way to improve the party

125. I think generalizing is part of the problem here

You continue to use terms that describe either end of the spectrum and little (or nothing) in between.

"Sympathy" for Trump voters is not the term I would use. I don't feel "sympathy" for Trump voters. I just want some of them who inevitably become disillusioned (if they haven't reached that point already), to realize the Democrats have something better to offer. That's what I'm arguing and I got the impression that it's what MineralMan is advocating as well.

On the other hand, to suggest there is no sympathy for those actually dealing with hate crimes and immigration, that's patently untrue. Perhaps some fraction of Democrats lack compassion on that front, but the majority of what I've read on this forum is that people here are absolutely appalled by these attacks on law-abiding individuals who make America a better place.

And, again, I don't know who you're referring to that is so strongly behind "white male Republicans." Obviously you've seen some posts from X number of people to compel you to keep coming back to that demographic, but it certainly doesn't apply to all of us who are willing to have a conversation with a portion of Trump voters willing to swing our way (not all of them are "white male Republicans" -- among those who may convert, it may actually be more women and minorities).
