[quote=Anonymous]If you look at overwhelmingly blue cities like Seattle, San Francisco, LA, DC, and others, it's clear Democrats offer nothing but an F U to the middle class, the working class, and everyone under 30 without a trust fund. Democrats will subsidize the very poor with Section 8 vouchers and so on, but they will never do anything that threatens the inflated property values of the professional class that are the base of the Democratic Party. Teachers and firefighters can't raise a family in a blue city. Try getting permits to build a six story residential building in a Democratic community and the NIMBYs with the Hate Has No Home Here yard signs will be out in full force.

It's no wonder young people and the middle class have turned away from the Democratic Party. It's a party for wealthy property owners and no one else. And Democrats are so detached from the real world that they think gender pronouns and insisting Latinos be called LatinX are the pressing issues of the day. The Democratic Party is completely broken. Republicans suck too. But when it comes to kitchen table issues, Democrats are the enemy for the vast majority of Americans. Trump is the only thing that keeps Democrats even remotely viable.[/quote]
