    STOP GOING AFTER WHITE VOTERS.

    Jesus Christ when are they going to learn. The last couple Democrat wins came from black and youth voters. White Americans (especially older) do not vote Democrat. You’d have an easier time teaching a dog Mandarin then flipping the Republican or nothing voter. Even with moderates Republicans they fall in line and independent conservatives are a tiny minority

      Ignoring 71% of the US is great advice. Spasibo, Ivan!

      Guess I’m not white. Does being gay just fully cancel out my skin color? Or is it my neurodivergence?

      Live in Texas and have never voted for and never will vote for a Republican. My first political rally was a Sanders event.

        I’m a straight white man, by definition I should be a Trump supporter, but I am also college educated so I guess that’s what cancels out my white maleness.

        Welcome to the club. People keep insisting Jews aren’t white, so why not queer and neurodivergent people as well? My daughter would be like triple non-white.

      WE CAN LITERALLY GO AFTER WHITE VOTERS IN ADDITION TO ALL THE OTHER VOTERS. THIS IS NOT A DIFFICULT CONCEPT, I’M SORRY YOU ARE HAVING A HARD TIME.

      If you hadn’t realized, EVERY GODDAMN VOTE MATTERS.

      There are segments of the traditional GOP voter that are incredibly sick of Trump and have become persuadable. With outreach tailored to that segment, she may be able to get some of them to vote for her - and even larger segments to at least not vote for him.

        I would agree but based off the last mid terms white voters were more likely to vote conservative. I ask you which makes more sense. Changing conservative voters minds who often go party over country? Or convincing groups who overwhelmingly vote Democrat who often don’t make it to the polls to actually go vote?
