      3/? now it's ALSO true that many of these same people have seen their way of life eliminated by globalism/outsourcing, so, double-whammy

      5/? Trump and the alt-right promise both, which is why he won the rust belt despite people being revolted by him personally

      Do you have evidence for this simplification? Or it's just handy short hand?

      handy short-hand for both his entire campaign promise suite, combined with polling data.

      Where did he talk about the kinds of restaurants in flyover? I remember him talking immigration, racism, infrastructure.

      oh, yeah, no, that's shorthand for elimination of diversity, combined with a lot of articles about WWC using that as examples.

      I've read none of those articles. Neither have I heard that among the issues of actual flyover people I live among.

      But I have heard articles where flyover people talk abt ObamaCare increases. Want to include that in your caricatures?

      How about the polling data that shows that many of these people were so scared of ethnic restaurants they voted for black man?

          my ENTIRE POINT is that we can win by promising fundamental economic change in spite of any racial resentment that exists.
