What the Democratic Party did to alienate poor white Americans

He’s spent years arguing that the party needs them back in it. His campaign has repeatedly made appeals to Trump’s voters (who are mostly non-college educated, blue collar whites, people who left the democratic party due to racial animus). And as Daneel pointed out, his opposition to reparations is due to it being “divisive”, ie. racist whites would be upset about it.

Mebbe so, but I’ve consistently failed to see how Hillary offers people of color anything more than Sanders… and I consider myself a Sanders skeptic. Sanders hasn’t exactly pandered to the racist crowd even in dog whistles, and I’m really at a loss for how he’s become a sort of illusory boogie man. Much to the benefit of Hillary.
