Progressive Politics

I mean you're right but which racists?

Latinos had record low turnout for democrats. Likely because "ICE bill" was a backpedal from DACA. Muslims have a strong presence in the midwest, I can't imagine gaza was not the driver for low dem turnout there.

There's a good argument to be made that letting in bigots into the dems big tent led to low turnouts in targeted demographics while making republican lies seem more credulous to the bigots dems were trying to recruit, leading to israel defenders and immigration racists not voting or voting trump.

We simply might be in the information landscape where there's more to gain from opposing republican policies people agree with as it would help discredit republicans.
