Sure buddy. When all the swing states vote red, that should tell you you’ve lost your way and focus on cleaning your own side of the street before trying to “educate” people who are smarter than you.
It definitely tells me that we need to improve our messaging. Whippy’s post is a perfect example: he lists a whole bunch of reasons why “smart people” voted for Trump, and every single one of those reasons is factually wrong. We accomplished a ton of stuff that the average American seems totally unaware even happened.
On the flip side, Trump ran a typical authoritarian-style message that historically plays well with the masses, but that anyone who’s ever cracked open a history book should see right through. Unfortunately, not many Americans have cracked open a history book.
Everything about Trump that we warned about is coming to pass, just like we said.
Some people wanted that authoritarianism, but anyone who voted Trump because they thought he’d do great things for the economy or middle class done fucked up, I don’t see how that’s even arguable.
Prices of shit are sky high, thousands of middle class Americans are out of work, farmers are being hurt badly, teacher pay is in real trouble, the stock market is rocky…thanks a ton, “smart guy.” You guys really came through for us.
