Trump didn’t win simply because he is a sui generis grifter. Democrats gave him many openings to spread his poison. It was all utterly predictable.

Even more appalling, Harris welcomed Dick and Liz Cheney into the fold. I was in Madison Square Garden during Trump’s full-house rally on Oct. 27. Trump and other speakers had a field day ridiculing Harris for joining forces with the architect of the disastrous Iraq War (far more for Iraqis of course). It’s an open question of whether Democrats are that dumb or incompetent to think they could win over a significant number of Republican women from what is a full-blown cult. It's the same disastrous strategy Clinton pulled in 2016. "For every blue-collar Democrat we lose in western Pennsylvania, we will pick up two moderate Republicans in the suburbs in Philadelphia," Chuck Schumer proclaimed in 2016. Or maybe this is who the Democrats are. In thrall to their billionaire masters, they are unwilling and unable to offer their base any sense of economic relief. It’s not like they haven’t done it before, though. Obama electrified voters in 2008 by promising to move past the “war on terror” while providing a helping hand from those knocked down by the Great Recession. They came out in droves, giving him a near-landslide victory. But you have to deliver, and Obama kicked his base in the face with trillion-dollar bailouts for Wall Street while abandoning Main Street.Black turnout in Wisconsin cratered from around 78 percent in 2012 to the mid-40s in 2016. After Hillary Clinton lost the election, many Black people in Milwaukee told reporters they didn’t vote because they were exhausted and demoralized. They mobilized twice before and in eight years “nothing had changed.”
