That’s me
As I was waking up, the germ of a blog post started to grow in the back of my mind, one about the fundamental flaw in the reasoning that blames Democrats for not adequately appealing to persons who voted for Donald Trump. I was musing about how to frame an argument that such “analyses??? overlook the tactics that Republicans used to attract those votes: venal appeals to selfishness, hatred, and bigotry.
I’ve never been painted as a bigot/misogynist/etc until this election cycle. Over the last couple months — semi-regularly.
