Shifting the blame on the poor whose votes they can generally take for granted allows bad dems to keep pining at the idea that one day they'll make inroads among well-to-do suburban conservatives who actually voted Trump.

"gently caress the working class, what we really need to appeal to is the people who made white flight a thing" - somewhere a democrat strategist believed that unironically

Syllables posted:not to discredit your point, but China was, at that point, fully aligned with the US in foreign policy beneath the surface, maoist parties in Europe were in cahoots with the CIA, and they were happily helping Pakistan and the US on the sly in Afghanistan. "Pol Pot was also China's creature" absolutely does not absolve the US' continued support of the Khmer rouge, to the point of still sending military and diplomatic support well after it was obvious to anyone that Vietnam had also won that war.

If anything the main problem with the statement was that the dems were unable to own it largely because their appeal was meant to try to turn away voters who were the worse deplorables (white flight suburbans). Also their immediate backpedaling didn't help.
