Liberals have been getting excoriated for being worthy of the elitist label since November, 2016.  Ostensibly that’s the reason Hillary lost.  Liberals forgot to pay attention to the Trump voter’s concerns.

I’m calling bullshit on that one.  Hillary lost for a whole host of reasons, but her failure to attract the white supremacist / bigotted / Duck Dynasty crowd wasn’t even close to a key reason.  She took the right position there.

Time and again, when called out for behavior the crosses the lines of decency Trump doubles down on his position and hardens his base.  That’s fine.  There are a percentage of hard core Republicans out there that wouldn’t be swayed if the FBI found a stash of kiddie porn in his desk drawer.

I’m quite fine with doubling down on elitism.  Democrats have better candidates this time.  Mobilize the sane and leave the insane behind.  I have no plans to reach out and “really understand where Trump voters are coming from.”   I really don’t care at this point.  Call me whatever label you want.  I’m more concerned about being on the right side of history.
