You can't win elections if you don't grow up and stop hating voters

[Squinch]

55. This is a fallacy from start to finish.

First of all, Democrats don't hate voters. Democrats told voters the truth, offered workable plans, paid attention to what is hurting voters in all areas of the country. Republicans, on the other hand, treated voters like imbeciles. The imbeciles in the country rose to the challenge.

Second of all, no we don't have to turn Trump voters. Which is nice because there is no way to overcome the sexism and racism that goes into a Trump vote without losing the soul of the Democratic party. What we need to do is motivate those who did not come out to vote.

And third, if your "typical" Trump voting friends didn't vote like imbeciles, they would have a lot less to worry about.

The idea of the deplorables was not brainwashing. Trump's vocal supporters are patently deplorable.

Do I hate Trump voters? They have just made my life and the lives of everyone I know precarious, in terms of financial security, security from war, security from discrimination, security from unchecked bigotry, and security from loss of our Democratic systems. So do I hate them? Yep. Wholeheartedly. I know I'm going to get all the shit they have brought down on us, and I hope that shit falls doubly hard on them.
