" Liberals blame workers who elected Trump ' ( from " The Militant " by Seth Galinsky )

None of the oh-so-progressive stars of the Democrat Party , Senator Elizabeth Warren , Senator Bernie Sanders will seriously upset the status quo of the Establishment wing of the party.
Instead they will conduct a dirty campaign smearing white working class Americans as Trump's " natural " RACIST , WHITE SUPREMACIST base.
There is nothing " liberal " or " progressive " about their vicious " identity politics " and vacuous " political correctness ". Nor their HATE RUSSIA , New McCarthyism.
There was an excellent article in " The Militant " on August 28, 2017 by one Seth Galinsky condemning this vilification of the white working class. The article was also very critical of the tactics of Anti Fa : " Liberals blame workers who elected Trump " :
[The meritocratic liberals and leftists lay the blame for what had happened on President Trump and workers who voted for him. An Aug. 12 column by Colbert King in the Washington Post was headlined, “These Are Your People, President Trump,” one of many variants in the liberal media that racist and rightist groups are his “base.”
“We have a bigoted billionaire-cum-president who has done precious little for the white working class whose resentment fueled his rise,” wrote Michael Dyson in the Aug. 12 New York Times. “The only remnant of this leadership they have to hold on to is the folklore of white nationalist sentiment, and xenophobic passion, that offer them psychic comfort if little financial stability.” ]
