@zeynep @BrendanNyhan Or maybe party leaders only seem to have influence because they reflected the voters, and it was the voters all along.
@SeanTrende @BrendanNyhan Polling and empirical work doesn't rally support that. It was a coalition. Tax cuts for rich never that popular.
.@SeanTrende @BrendanNyhan Research is clear: elected officials respond to donors & rich constituents. Genuine crisis of representation.
@zeynep @BrendanNyhan That's really not inconsistent with what I said.
@SeanTrende ? I don't think party policies were generally representing voter concerns, probably more severe on the R side.
@SeanTrende Hmm. I think the R coalition had long fractured, and the Tea Party wasn't what the "Party" projected onto it.
@SeanTrende Tea Party base wasn't concerned Party "not conservative enough" by elite definition but something else: http://scholar.harvard.edu/files/williamson/files/tea_party_pop.pdf …
@SeanTrende Tax-cut/trickle down/~trade/war abroad had not served base. Took very long to finally surface, actually. "The Party" held back.
@SeanTrende Add all the race issues that really bubbled after Obama election. Trump coalition is .. almost mundane. Except Trump isn't.
