Drivel. Occam’s Razor applies.
Minority voters finally grasped that neither of these parties really cares about them. But under Trump, they’ve got a better chance of making it.
Making it is a term of art here.
People don’t want a handout or a socialized system that helps them. They want a chance. The Democrats continue to think the poor are rational handout junkies. “If we just give them something, as Cass Sunstein says, they’ll be properly nudged.”
Your party’s problem is it thinks the American Dream is about comfort. Ya dumb fucks. If were that, this place would’ve collapsed decades ago.
