at least in michigan, if they had focused on black voters in detroit and flint, the state would have gone blue. so, like, maybe the lesson isn't "we didn't pay attention to this particular demographic enough" but "we are sucky and need to stop being so sucky."

Kurtofan posted:Watch the White House move to Mare-alago I thought it was really nice of Donald to donate his Palm Beach resort property to the U.S. government for use as the "Winter White House". I'm sure that generations will enjoy touring this once-exclusive resort that is now, of course, completely open to the public as a national monument. Right?

I'm tryna dig up an atlantic article a few months back where they talked to pro-Brexit voters in Sunderland and Trump voters in Indiana and detailed the parallels and how "economic anxiety" and "immigration" are just a smokescreen for "we're mad we don't get a guaranteed first place at the table anymore" and "I'm scared we'll become a minority". Whites in both countries seem to feel that civil rights is a zero sum game and for others to gain, they must lose.

My dude, we control nothing. As in, Texas didn't just fail to turn blue. The senate, congress, the presidency, Supreme Court... It was a huge loss and now is the time to realize that we don't need more centrists we need actual leftists with big cojones
