“I will vote for the Democratic nominee, whoever it may be” is saying “you do not need to earn my vote; I will settle for whatever you force on me.” That’s not democracy. If there are no repercussions for those manipulating the levers of power, nothing will ever change.

Trump won a number of states by very small margins - margins that could have been made up by Clinton if she had gotten the same black turnout as Obama had gotten in 2008 and 2012. If anyone deserves blame, it’s Clinton and the Democratic establishment.
You are still not taking ownership for the fact that if BLACKS represent ONLY 12% of the country and our vote matters that much then a HELL of a lot of WHITE people are not VOTING. PERIOD. I wasn’t a fan of Clinton either. But this loss belongs to ppl who represent the majority.

I don’t disagree with that in any way - we may be talking around each other at this point. The Democratic Party also turned its back on labor years ago, which is why so many disaffected whites in former blue states now reliably vote Republican.

Thus is true. Labor was a huge loss for the Dems in 2016. Blacks were not exactly enchanted by Clinton so turnout was low compared to previous years.
