To win working-class voters — and possibly today’s election — Democrats need to attack economic elites. But the Kamala Harris campaign hasn’t consistently offered an anti-elite counter to Donald Trump’s right-wing populism.
How does that make any sense? Conservatives everywhere always just want things to go back to the good old days, eliminates earned freedoms, and kick people out of the country that don’t look like them.
It doesn’t, but it doesn’t have to. It’s like if you give a sack of rotten fruit to a starving man, he’ll eat it gladly, even if it kills him.
