Yeah Don't Do This Future Dems http://www.rollcall.com/news/opinion/im-a-coastal-elite-from-the-midwest-the-real-bubble-is-rural-america I’m from the rural Midwest. I now live in Washington, D.C. All of this talk about coastal elites needing to understand more of America has it backward. ... When you grow up in rural America, denying rights to people is an abstract concept. Denying marriage rights to gay people isn’t that much different than denying boarding rights to Klingons. ... To pin this election on the coastal elite is a cop-out. It’s intellectually dishonest, and it’s beneath us. We, as a culture, have to stop infantilizing and deifying rural and white working-class Americans. Their experience is not more of a real American experience than anyone else’s, but when we say that it is, we give people a pass from seeing and understanding more of their country. More Americans need to see more of the United States. They need to shake hands with a Muslim, or talk soccer with a middle aged lesbian, or attend a lecture by a female business executive. ... If we pin this election on coastal elites, we are excusing white working-class and rural Americans for voting for a man accused of violating the Fair Housing Act by refusing to rent apartments to black people. If we pin this election on coastal elites, we are excusing white working-class and rural Americans for voting for a man who called Mexicans rapists, drug dealers and criminals. If we pin this election on coastal elites, we are excusing white working-class and rural Americans for voting for a man who called for a complete ban on Muslim immigration. ... Change has not been kind to the Midwest and rural America. And rather than embrace it, rural and white working-class Americans are twisting and turning, fighting it every step of the way. We will never return to the days where a white man could barely graduate high school and walk onto a factory floor at 18 and get a well-paying job for life. That hasn’t set in for much of the Midwest.

Gail Wynand posted:Confirmed, you don't know what it means. She was a loving New Democrat and the term evolved out of describing the toadies in her husbands administration who went on to back her and advise her throughout the 2000s. Also again, you don't know what the gently caress you're talking about with regard to Warren because the party is no longer under anybody in particular's control right now. Brazille is an interim-leader nothing more.

The Democrats have no power, and Warren's not going to RAGE about stopping Trump's every move when the Republicans control every branch and will get rid of means of opposition. We don't even know how the Dem side is going to shake out yet. Trump was just elected, he has no power yet.

Pollyanna posted:And guess who's gonna continue those wars? Honestly, both candidates would have done so. It's really early to tell, but it seems like Trump's idea is to antagonize China, which he still plans to do, while corralling Pacific allies as a bulwark. Those Pacific allies include Russia. Could the rest of Washington go along with this?

Sharkopath posted:It's not an outright rejection of a leftward economic policy shifts by minority posters, just a real and cogent wariness of it because of historical reasons. This would be a much more troubling reason minorities across the spectrum sit this out, but they would be well within reason to have hated this general election which ignored issues especially important to their communities, even the majority-minority communities were depressed this year. The years prior to the election weren't exactly shining beacons of hope either.
