The PRRI study is interesting, and it lines up with my thoughts. However, I think they were mostly duped. Trump ran on a platform for helping the poor working class and bringing back good ol American values. It just proves what I was saying, the rich and powerful pit all of us against each other.

I don't think the white people who voted for him were duped. Racism and sexism were some of the biggest driving forces behind trump votes.

Racism and sexism stem from capitalism. Keep people divided over race and sex. Workers need to unite.

As the research specifically shows white voters voted against their economic interests because of racial fears?

Your arguement is technically correct, but misses the mark about as far as you can go.

You're whooshing hard, which makes you trying to be smug rather sad.
