Sorry Ruy, but this isn’t the beginning of the Clinton era when the Democrats were the working-class party and the GOP was for the elites. Now the tables have turned because of Trump. Giggles acts and talks like the elitist west coast liberal she is. Working class people of all races identify more with Trump than with her, and that will become very evident in this election cycle.
Your correct viewpoint was what the author is saying, too.
