Yeah, they have nothing to fear, it’s a long done deal.
I remember seeing a county map of Indiana in the 2016 election. I think there was a little blue around Indianoplace!
Democrats abandoned the blue collar voter during the Clinton years, when they purged the party of the moderate and blue dog democrats.
It cost them the election in 2000, but they didn’t see it.
Had Gore simply held WV, FL didn’t matter.. A state that hadn’t voted for a Republican in an open election since 1928!! (yes it had voted for re-election of some GOP folks between then and 2000, but it had NEVER EVER voted for a non incumbent GOP for President since 1928)
That should have been the warning to the Dems they were on the wrong path... but Obama created a one time cover, due to his race, and and anger at the Bush years, and lets not even get into Romney. So they just kept marching away from their blue collar base... and thought it didn’t matter...
Funny thing though, even with all the identity politic nonsense the left uses, their single biggest voting bloc is still non college educated whites..... and those non college educated whites have finally started to figure out the Dems don’t care about them.
