Turned around and came out for Trump because of his economic message this time around has been completely destroyed. It's as false as a narrative can be. The narrative is being pushed by the exact same group who were flailing all around throughout the primary when it came to excusing a monolithic campaign that ignored the concerns of the Democratic base.

Women, POC, LGBQT.... all underrepresented in government from dog catcher up and we are now being lectured to on how more resources need to be devoted to getting the conservative and uneducated white male vote. These people scream Manchin from the rooftops as an example of why the party is so bad and too far to the right all while wanting to coddle conservative white males.

The number of white males who voted for Obama and then Trump cannot be quantified. Even if it could we know the numbers are small. We also know that small number cannot be explained by the bullshit claim it was Trumps economic message.

They are also a statistically diminishing breed. We have larger numbers to go after. Clinton ran an excellent campaign, it is a fools game claiming she did not have an economic message for white rural voters and that she didn't deliver it. It was a regular topic in her speaches. If anything more resources should have been allocated toward the shifting party base. Those who are being systemically oppressed.

And for the meme that I'm claiming Clinton can do no wrong, you've read that no where in my writings. I've never discussed her in terms of once being a carpenter.
