Summary
Historians suggest Democrats might have fared better against Donald Trump by embracing the economic issues championed by Senator Bernie Sanders, who has long pushed for a focus on “bread-and-butter” concerns for working-class voters.
Despite Kamala Harris’s progressive policies, polls showed Trump was favored on economic issues, particularly among working-class and Hispanic voters.
Historian Leah Wright Rigueur argued that Sanders’ messaging on economic struggles could be key for future Democratic strategies.
Sanders himself criticized the party for “abandoning” the working class, which he said has led to a loss of support across racial lines.
Hispanic voters did not “flee socialism.” Why are you lying?
I think they might be referring to Cubans?
Oh no. We might not win Florida, since that’s still a swing state.
Probably, but it was still absolutely braindead moronic and blatantly in bad faith in multiple ways. First of all, most Hispanic Americans came from somewhere other than Cuba, so the bullshit about “socialism” doesn’t even begin to apply. Second, communism as implemented by Cuba is entirely fucking different from the socialism advocated for by Bernie Sanders, and conflating them is not only ridiculous but downright defamatory.
