DC: Democrats should stop trying to win over white Republican voters, according to several prominent liberal writers.
That was the point of a column Washington Post writer Paul Waldman wrote on Tuesday, which liberal journalists approvingly circulated on social media, adding their agreement.
Waldman, who previously worked for left-wing group Media Matters, blamed Fox News and conservative media for the fact blue-collar Trump voters don’t vote Democrat.
“In the endless search for the magic key that Democrats can use to unlock the hearts of white people who vote Republican, the hot new candidate is ‘respect,’” Waldman snarked. “If only they cast off their snooty liberal elitism and show respect to people who voted for [President] Donald Trump, Democrats can win them over and take back Congress and the White House.”
The problem isn’t Democrats, according to Waldman — it’s that Trump voters are too uninformed to vote for Democrats. MORE
SNIP: Thank you, SmugPo, for diluting your Dem base. LOL!
Dunning Kruger Syndrome at its finest.
The more obviously inferior the Left becomes, the more desperately they need to cling to their imaginary superiority.
When I read the article, I imagined the WaPo guy wearing a bladder leakage pad, typing with a borrowed cigarette in his mouth and the tears streaming down his face keeps putting out the cigarette.
Gosh. Haven’t they done that already?
“Excuse me, Mrs. Lincoln. I think your husband may not be feeling well.”
Hell, the Dems started this as their
SOP almost two decades ago. I remember when they announced it.
And just where has it gotten them?
….and the Mets should give up trying to trade for Aaron Judge…..GO PIRATES!!!!!….
Trump voters aren’t stupid enough to buy into leftist bs. We also don’t like smug leftist pussies who actually think they are intelligent. They’re right to give up in us. No one with any sense is buying what they’re pushing.
I don’t mind being uninformed as long as I’m not a lesbian, faggot, trans, questioning, queer, fluid, sexist labeling, racist bating, illegal supporting, mainstream listening, pop culture voting… progressive liberal democrat.
The progs I run into look like the most miserable people… OFFending them is doing them a favor.
I’m not smart enough to believe that we will never run out of other peoples money. That is a fact
What is the democrats message for the last ten years. If your white your garbage and you need to be eliminated and replaced with people so much better then you , also your going to pay for it too. Have any objectives to financing your demise, Then you are more of a Nazi then Hitler. Be happy that your neighborhood is being culturally enriched with new thing like mine. I know now that fighting with acid and machetes is a perfect way to settle a parking dispute. If anybody is ever in Queens NY, stop by Ozone Parkastan formally ( Ozone Park) and come and see Americas future
These folks are really nutjobs… Paul Waldman wrote a column; back in April about legalizing weed; and he called Chuckie Schumer a “certified cool dude” wtf? How can anyone feel that way about Schumer how far left do you have to be to think this way?
Bret Stephens, John Podhoretz, Bill Kristol, Kevin Williamson, David Brooks and David Frum are all telling the Republican Party to give up on white Republicans, too. Weird.
They were trying to win us over??!! Dang! I missed that part.
The democrats should just give up. Fold up your tent and give it to the homeless, who you adore.
