So is our message really that all Trump voters are racist and that's why we lost?
Is this our strategy? Because if it is I want to mark on my calendar the day the Democratic Party died. We used to care about people in the rust belt. We used to watch Roger and Me and feel for those people. Now all we want to do is eliminate the electoral college so we can forget them. The electoral college isn't going anywhere and in the meantime the people in the rust belt will see that we are trying to cut them out and they'll continue to vote against us. They don't care that republicans opposed the auto bailout, they care that their states are still hurting and Trump was the only one still speaking to them.
It is a reality of human nature that people vote for their economic survival first and social issues second. We can ignore that reality and the Republicans can swoop in and steal our economic message as Trump just did, and if so, let me know so I can at least know that we are finished as a party.

7. No, the current message
is that we didn't really lose, that the election was stolen, so we don't need to change anything before the 2018 elections with regards to voter outreach.
Good plan. I concur.

Should I kill myself now or wait two years?
Should I post a poll?

21. Perhaps not.
But it would seem they didn't care about other races enough to not cast a vote for that unqualified orange ****ball.
meh...

31. No, they're stupid too.
Orange Julius got 40% of the union vote. These are very stupid people. I'm sorry, but that's just a fact. If you're a union guy and you voted for the right to work party, that makes you stupid. It just does. Being so naïve as to think that this billionaire novice is going to be looking out for the little guy is absurd. These people bought a line of bullshit so ridiculous that they cannot be taken seriously in any capacity.
It wouldn't be so bad if only they were made to suffer for this but we're all going to feel the pain.
you left out the keyword: "uneducated"

38. Trump told
those dumb ****ers a bunch of lies and they believed him. If we stoop to lying and courting racist whites, then I don't want to be a Democrat anymore.
excellent. We'll be happy to count your republican vote in 2018
