Clearly and unequivocally he has done things that benefit the working class because.....they voted for him in greater numbers than 2016.
But you are sneering at them as "hillbillies" (i.e stupid and ignorant), too dumb to know their own best interests
Honestly I think you are the one that is stupid and ignorant. And its precisely this kind of attitude that pushes people away from the Dems.
It still feels like a dumb idea, because of well, literally everything the man has ever done. Has anything he’s done ever had a positive impact on the working class? At least the dems have a sorta spotty record on healthcare, and a minor interest in keeping the workers fed and clothed.
It’s not the working class that I have an issue with. It’s everyone voting for Trump that I have an issue with. They just happen to overwhelmingly be hillbillies.
Europe has sensible political parties for the working class, that actually work for their interests, and the only reason I can imagine the US doesn’t have them is because nobody is interested in them. They roundly rejected Sanders and he’s the closest the US ever came.
