    How can the progressive outlook not require a major overhaul if it succeeds thanks to well-off suburbs, with some evidence of softening minority support?

        I think this depends very much on how you define “minority."

        @samuelmoyn it's just a tacit way of denigrating the legitimate political aspirations of suburbanites, which is weird, since they have actually helped move progressive ideals forward in the last few years and are doing a lot of hard political work

        One thing: the support is not the Imaginary Proletariat.

        also worth remembering that that softening minority support is almost all men. the gender gap is getting bigger.

        They won’t think about it for a second, they’ll keep trying to win those votes and take the drop off in Latino and black votes as acceptable losses. They’ve already said this

        @samuelmoyn love the addition of the words "well off," as if that is in any way meaningful

        but i gotta admit, the fact that Trump and the GOP in general appeals to more than 13% of the population is kinda concerning
