[–] GeneralInterest@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago (2 children) I don't think it's just the fact that she's a black/Asian woman. I saw this on BBC News which is probably correct: [Trump has] completely "reimagined" the Republican party from its country club voter stereotype to appealing to working class families, while the Democrats had become the "party of Hollywood". permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Katana314@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago (1 child) “Imagined” is perhaps the right word considering he wanted to raise taxes for low income people, and lower taxes for rich people. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 11 points 2 years ago (1 child) Oh yeah. But it's people's perceptions that everyone is hunting for anyways. It's fake love for the working class in the way the rich love their butler but will replace him if he ever gets sick. But that perception and the story of the party is super important and how to win elections. The Democrats haven't been chasing that identity and let it slip while trying to figure out who should be the candidate that cost the least amount of money for its donors. It's not impossible to see how the perceptions got to where they are. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago Oh yeah.
