Trump has destroyed identity politics, what strategy do the Dims use now?

I really think that’s where we’re at and we can thank Trump and Elijah Cummings for finally killing that bogus BS off. The Dim strategy of identity politics is dead and let’s be honest, that’s been their most effective strategy for decades, so where do they go now?
If I was going to advise the Fraud Squad and other Uber progressives currently in Congress I would tell them to shoot the fricking moon and bring your socialist agenda front and center for the 2020 election. They might as well let the American people accept or reject their socialist progressive agenda in this upcoming election, time for an American referendum on your agenda you Prog/Dim leftists.

Not really, but he might have put a dent in it.

As a Democrat I certainly hope my party moves beyond identity politics. But it fires up the fringe parts of the party so I doubt it.

Even though I'm 95% certain it's a loser, that's basically all they can do. I mean, they only have 2 primary agendas:
1) Identity Politics
2) Free Stuff for 50% of the population
Although, there's one other weapon in their artillery that concerns me:
3) ELECTION FRAUD
Unless the bottom falls out of the economy, I think (3) is the only way the Democrats can win.

I think Trump has mortally wounded identity politics. We’re at the point where unless a politician uses some blatant and pointed racist verbiage everything else is just some feeble attempt at identity politics....literally more and more people everyday are not listening to the weak arse cries of racism, xenophobia, misogyny, homophobia, etc.

That would start a civil war i don't think all the Democrats want to be worm food.

A strong number 3 is the ol victimhood schtick.

Trump has reinforced identity politics.
What percentage of Trump voters do you think identify as white, middle-class, Christian, and American? That sure seems to be the demographic he's targeting for his support.

Who does your base target? Most of them are not even legal citizens lol.

If by reinforced, you mean he's caused the left to quadruple down on it, then I agree
Posted on 7/29/19 at 5:42 pm to WildTchoupitoulas
What are you talking about? Notice he never panders to people of any race? Or did you forget that?

I hope this would be true but nothing suggests people on the left will be slowing down on identity politics.
Posted on 7/29/19 at 5:44 pm to WildTchoupitoulas
You said the left was going after children to vote?

and Democrats target minorities for their support. What's your question exactly about identity politics?

Wait, that doesn't even make sense. Most of my "base" aren't legal citizens? What does that even mean?

No, he employs it himself.

They’ll always have it in their arsenal. But I believe you’re partly right in that by him attacking it he weakens it’s effectiveness.
