Contrary to popular sentiment, Trump supporters are not a bunch of uneducated trade workers. Much of the voter base are petty bourgeois small business owners who see themselves in this CEO.
More and more, I’m coming to believe that poaching working class conservatives will be more fruitful for the left than poaching liberals.
It feels like a moment of potential in America right now. The re-election of Trump; the unashamed genocide by Biden; the refusal to help Americans with medical or education debt; the crumbling state of the country in general, from infrastructure to intangibles like social atomization. There has got to be some appetite for a more radical leftist alternative, just due to the conditions facing the American working class right now, regardless of political affiliation. It will be interesting to see how PSL performs in the next ten years.
