      Read history. Read ethnographies. Yes—add quant & regressions. Economic despair/populism almost always *merges* with race/gender/foreigners.

      I mean specifically this. The paper cited is fine; the misleading narrative is what helped lose Clinton the elex.https://twitter.com/voxdotcom/status/816713333751611392 …

      It's.. interesting how little post-mortem there has been on what was wrong with the prevalent analyses among Dems. Don't learn=repeat.

      I don't mean why didn't Clinton go to x state. I mean: what was the theory of the electorate, and why it was wrong. Because it was wrong.

      But misses the Q. Why was it such a close election? Trump, too, had no shortage of scandals. Why did RU & FBI matter?https://twitter.com/MikeStaresinic/status/817019353665257472 …

      if it weren't for Ru and FBI, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Yet, people blame themselves when systems fail them.

      I know there is a lot of arguments that this was a fluke, black swanish event, but things converged. MI-WI-PA matter because of FL-NC etc.

      All "close" events (yes could have gone the other way with a few hundred thousand votes) don't mean whole thing shows no trends/dynamics.

      what do you think is the story of what happened? What’s the correct theory of the electorate?

      This was a close election. If people keep up dismissing real economic despair, next one won't be. I'm from Turkey. I've seen this movie. https://twitter.com/MWLaPointe/status/796419859559182336 …

      Ha. Yeah. But I wrote up some of this in the NYT. The message didn't have buyers. But will write more this year.

          even just a stopgap page where you link to the main twitter rants with a brief blurb would be great, if you ever get the time
