Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
They're talking about winning over Trump VOTERS.
Too many people here fall into the trap of assuming that anyone who voted for Trump did so because they're sexist/racist/white-nationalist/anti-immigrant. And most of them 35-40% are. But there's a share of 10% or so who voted for Trump simply because they were fed up with politicians of BOTH parties who failed to address their economic problems, and who decided to go with "a businessman
or simply knock all the playing pieces off the board and shake things up. Many of them are unhappy with Trump now and can be won back IF the Democratic alternative doesn't scare them (the "referendum" election vs the "choice election"
and IF we don't lose them by branding them as Trump sycophants.
If I were to vote in a presidentialprimary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
