So what it boils down to is trust more than policy, I think. And I happen to think what politician you trust has more to do with the dreaded identity politics (and who speaks to your identity/culture) than with class because *waves hand at US history*.

Yeah but that’s not an electoral strategy per se. It’s a coalition management strategy. You can’t satisfy the policy preferences of your whole coalition, so you tell your far flank (left OR right) “we won’t do anything good for you, but they’ll do a LOT bad for you.”
It’s literally what politicians on both sides did for 24 years.
