    Yup primaries are where you can shape your party and hopefully arent choosing between a Nazi and a different flavored genocide. Do what you can with what you can.

        Okay. It sure felt like the republican working class leveraged their vote effectively.

            And yet, that is a huge part of their voting base. There just aren’t enough rich people to be a functional voting block. They may have been tricked but they are voting GOP. That’s reality. Denying it loses elections.

              Neither the DNC nor GOP are working class parties, that’s the point. The working class has never won an election.

                We just dont like to admit that the working class contains the same amount of evil as your average citizen within it. They just lack the time or finances to manipulate each other as successfully as the wealthy.
