A word of advice about controlling the Democratic Party message

[BainsBane]

5. Hillary Clinton won voters earning under $50k

And had her widest margin with voters earning under $30k. Trump won incomes over $75 k. And as much as you might like to pretend the Klan, neo-Nazis and White Supremacists in the White House aren't racist, don't matter, or can be explained away by your obsession with Bill Clinton, the evidence doesn't support your claims.

Tell me how exactly I control the party? Really, I would like to know how I amassed such massive power? My income doesn't rise to the level of the average Trump voter, though it would be nice if it did. I don't live in the suburbs or exurbs. It is true that I am a woman and survivor of sexual assault who believes that rape is wrong and that a sexual assailant doesn't belong in the White House. I don't make excuses for hate crimes and the Klan, and if that makes me your enemy, I am proud to assume that mantle. I am simply one of the inferior people that your Trump voting heroes demanded have my rights stripped away so they could make America Great again.

You had an opportunity in the GE to work toward overturning those Supreme Court decisions turning elections over to big money, but you decided the scourge of white supremacists being called racist was a more serious problem. You now have a fascist about to enter the White House, and several times a day one of those non-racist Trump voters attacks or beats a woman of color in Trump's name.

My post was not about your obsession with the 90s or outrage that a Hillary Clinton won the nomination by 3.8 million votes. Its purpose was exactly as I said. If people believe they have the answers, they should run on that message. This site does not determine the future of the party or anything else.

I'm sorry you so resent voters like me and that you see the marginalized as part of a cabal against the oppressed, middle and upper-middle class white men that decided this election. All you despised was defeated. The Clintons are finished. The nefarious civil rights-concerned Democrats have been soundly defeated. America is great again. You really have no reason to be angry at me, other than you can't accept the fact I have the right to exercise a vote, because one vote is the extent of my power.

Clearly you don't sit down with those you disagree with. You can't even read a post without unleashing venom, projecting all kinds of views onto strangers who you don't respect enough to even ask how they see the issues you ascribe to them. You do not now and will never have any idea what I believe because you view the entire world through your prism of resentment. I can't do anything about your animosity toward Democratic voters. All I can do is continue to exercise my right to vote as long as I still have it, and it is precisely that which so enrages you.
