Trump's bullshit 'I'm a good business boy who will let business do whatever they want to my butt' is the solution in that world. quote:Trump's voters constantly cited his business experience and all, you can't just call this a 'change' election, it was also a huge 'pro-business' capitalist election that he won on.

The Reagan Democrats are Republicans. We learned that this year when there weren't enough of them to win Hillary any states that mattered.

Trump's bullshit 'I'm a good business boy who will let business do whatever they want to my butt' is the solution in that world. Real people actually do care about universal programs like Medicare and Social Security and have never believed that those kinds of government programs are plots to steal their hard-earned wealth, so maybe we should champion more policies like that. Or we could offer means-tested health insurance subsidies that give lower-income families who don't qualify for Medicaid a worse deal than slightly poorer people who do qualify. This is a surefire winner, and we can apply this model to new fields like college education and charter schools. nopants posted:Being a dirty socialist with actual plans to help the working class and actual conviction is more attractive to working class voters than being neoliberal trash that offers no real hope. Democrats don't win national elections the same way as Republicans. We don't win spewing negativity and smears without motivating voters positively to vote what we can do to help them once elected. I do want to emphasize that it's essential to have a villain in your narrative, too. Clinton failed to do what you suggest, but she also couldn't distinguish Trump as being part of a predatory class because she's in that class too. In fact she did the opposite, trying to cast him as uncouth and unfit to be part of the ruling political establishment.

Bad Dems on Nov 7th: Trump CAN'T win, he insulted every demographic republicans need to even stand a chance! No one cares about right-wing "scandals". Demographics are destiny! Anyone could beat him, Hillarys gonna flip texas and arizona! Bad Dems on Nov 9th: Well you see, it was impossible for any democrat to win, Trump was just too powerful, America is just too racist and sexist and Russians and the FBI, it's amazing Clinton did so well and almost won.

MizPiz posted:Being more understanding forgiving about political missteps made Bernie's rise possible, no point in abandoning the strategy when it's given us this monentum. being forgiving about signs of centrism because the candidate was charismatic and said progressive things and associated with progressives is what gave us four years of Obama. being forgiving about blatantly centrist behavior and open betrayal of progressive principles because "they're just doing it to get elected" is what gave us four more years of Obama. focusing too much on the top positions while ignoring lower-level races, not to mention outright applauding as the top-level candidates undermine the lower-level races for their own benefit, is what gave us GOP supremacy in local, state, and national government the only thing an Ellison win will prove is that the establishment doesn't need to make real policy or messaging concessions because progressives are gullible enough to be won over by meaningless token moves and stupid enough to not realize where the real power lies
