Okay. It sure felt like the republican working class leveraged their vote effectively.

The GOP isn't a working class party.

And yet, that is a huge part of their voting base. There just aren't enough rich people to be a functional voting block. They may have been tricked but they are voting GOP. That's reality. Denying it loses elections.

Neither the DNC nor GOP are working class parties, that's the point. The working class has never won an election.
