The contempt for Trump supporters - the " deplorables "as Hillary called them- only reflects the CLASS snobbery of phony pseudo-liberal ILLIBERAL Democrats. The DNC snobs have nothing to offer the American voters but spiteful " identity politics ": For example, they would offer community college courses to poor working class white males on how not to offend the racial pride of black millionaires.
The whole purpose of this " identity politics " is to smother more threatening CLASS CONSCIOUSNESS. Hillary Clinton lost the votes of working class people in the Rust Belt states because they correctly perceived her to be a CLASS enemy. To be sure, Trump is also no " friend of labor ". Both the Democrats and the Republicans serve the American plutocracy - with some passionate disagreements on their own class war strategies.
