I agree with you, but the issue with Trump and a large number of his supporters is that they do tend to spurn out the most vile racist, bigoted, homophobic rhetoric you could imagine.

Call a duck a duck. Call a racist a racist.

I would have thought a party calling itself the Democratic Party might actually believe in democracy tbh.......
 
I suspect he'll grab Larry inappropriately when he comes to see Theresa May. Just because he can like.

Wouldn't put it past him to get a pic with Larry while he's there. Like the current snit over the crowd count, he's capable of any sort of troll behavior to get the upper hand on the press corps. They'll melt down overlaying the pic with infamous hot mike quotes in tweets to each other while the cat lovers for Trump will all be hitting the save button of the same unmarked picture.

*insert picture of Trump with taco salad*

Did you know that Trump got a bigger share of the Hispanic vote than Romney? True, it was a vault over a limbo bar, but it is what it is.

If it doesn't make sense to you, just keep watching.
 
I must be slipping. Sorry. Identity politics is all about pitting one group against another. Gay vs Straight, Black vs White, Rich vs Poor. It's been the Dem platform for years and they're going to double down on it rather than come up with a platform that appeals to most all American, regardless of race, gender, religion, wealth, etc...

Come up with something that appeals to the plumber in Madison, Wisconsin and the professor in Boston MA. The senior citizen in FL and the millennial in Seattle.

I'm not saying you can be all things to all people because you can't. But a platform of calling voters racists, bigots, or homophobic because they don't agree with you on the issues is a very poor strategy in my opinion.

By your definition the right...namely Fox News...does nothing but identity politics. Right vs Left. All things left are evil...scary...fear change.

Without progressive ideas we wouldn't have advanced as a culture/nation. People on the right always resist change. They talk about tradition...well, frankly it was once tradition to own slaves in this country...it was once tradition that women didn't have a voice. Gays were vilified. Since the founding of this nation conservatives have railed against immigrants...whether it be the Irish, Polish, Chinese, Mexicans...always resistance in a nation that was founded by immigrants.

I embrace one thing more than any other with regards to our constitution...all men are created equal. If that is identity politics then I am happy to wear that label.

Each party has idiots, just like every club has its whoppers, yes, even Everton.

It's when you attempt to paint an entire swathe of the electorate with the "racist" brush that a party gets as thoroughly trounced as the Dems have.

Call me crazy but people who aren't racist or homophobic don't like being called racist and homophobic.
OK why does trump sympathise with white supremacists then ?? The odious Brennan for one..
