1) DU will never address the fact that "Blue Collar" workers are actually overwhelmingly minority and women and actually did vote for HRC. Just like "Patriots" and "tax paying" citizens, though, DU and the DEMS have allowed republicans to own those labels

2)Minorities and women are STILL waiting to see if the real issues will be discussed as to why that demographic voted against their best interest. Slavery and Jim Crow laws prove to the USA that that demographic can't be "economy shamed" into voting for their interests.
