It& #39;s not clear to me what "reach out" actually means in practice. Democrats already favor policies that benefit low-income, rural and working-class populations. The idea of anti-"real America" Dems is based on a single out-of-context Obama quote. https://twitter.com/mtsw/status/1325118940285001728">https://twitter.com/mtsw/stat...

Democratic politicians talk *constantly* about the importance of rural America and the need to empathize across ideological lines. That was Obama& #39;s entire Thing! Farmer and factory worker have been the top two professions mentioned in political campaigns my entire life.

The idea that Democrats are condescending to red-state voters is a straightforward myth, a decades-long Swift Boating of an entire political party. What *exactly* should Dem politicians be doing that they& #39;re not doing now?
