      When "elites" laugh at Trump it only feeds his supporters, rather than enlightening.

      Hillary's tracker for undecideds said the deplorable comment did her in. https://www.bostonglobe.com/opinion/2016/11/21/understanding-undecided-voters/9EjNHVkt99b4re2VAB8ziI/story.html …

          Right - but the entire point of that riff was that we ignore the David Duke's and empathize with everyone else. Did you read it?

          at the end of the day, 2020 will be more about getting more minority, young and poorer voters to show up and be energized

          If you care about America you might think about healing the conflict at its core. But if you care only abt Dems winning, well..

          I thought the entire point you were making was about winning over support? If you want to talk about healing, that should start

          not sure why you feel the need to always resort to being so condescending - ironic given the context. Take care

          Fair point. I just think leftists need to start thinking about how to win back the Obama-to-Trump voters.
