(Extrapolating from assumptions made in the article about who didn't vote for Trump:) So more than half of the United States isn't working class? I don't think that's the case. Considering that people of color and (to a lesser extent) younger people are largely Democrat (while noting that e.g. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/theres-no-such-thing-as-the-latino-vote/ https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/theres-no-such-thing-as...), it seems likely that race/ethnicity and age are bigger factors than this guy is making them out to be--most of the working class black population, certainly, is still reliably Democrat. This person themselves may be a Republican person of color, but they are certainly an outlier. https://www.cnn.com/election/2020/exit-polls/president/national-results https://www.cnn.com/election/2020/exit-polls/president/natio... Note in particular that 72% of Trump supporters claim that they are better off financially than they were four years ago, and 84% believe the economy is in better shape than it was (compared to 16% of Biden voters). The narrative this piece is pushing doesn't seem to fit the data, assuming these CNN numbers are representative. This being the case, I'm curious why the discussion isn't (also) framed as "why aren't black people voting Republican in greater numbers?" Black voters have suffered from economic distress in higher proportions, yet are arguably responsible for the continued success of the Democratic party. Why don't we talk about this more when we talk about political divisions in the U.S.? The fact is, that, while we do have to contend with class in the United States--and I absolutely see truth in the notion that Democrats failed to support working class, rural whites especially, leaving a void waiting to be filled--it's worth examining _also_ why working-class black voters didn't similarly swarm en masse to the Republican party because of economic conditions (which have on the whole been consistently _worse_ than those of most working-class white people). Solving the problem of divisiveness in the United States requires acknowledging and working to address the challenges faced by of _all_ its citizens, not just poor white people. P.S. to folks who think that the "white supremacy" narrative is bunk because Trump increased his numbers among blacks and latinos, note that black support is still at 12% (per the CNN link above) --not high! And the Latino narrative is complicated: compare Cuban-Americans in Florida and Mexican-Americans in Arizona, for example. I wouldn't be so quick to make too many assumptions about this narrative.
