Democrats: Stop Chasing Amy and Start Chasing Stacey

The question now is if you will, once again, take our votes for granted and cater to white fragility and anxiety, or if you will finally center our votes and concerns.

Democrats, a majority of white women just aren’t into you.

I know this is painful to hear, and I hate to break the news, but a sincere friend who loves you tells harsh truths, while others write articles about “economic anxiety” and hillbilly elegies.

You have spent so much time and energy over the past several years chasing Amy and Karen. You’ve squatted in Rust Belt coffee shops and visited Midwestern suburban Paneras, talking to “real Americans.” You held numerous focus groups and interviewed hundreds of “undecided voters” desperately trying to understand why they would continue to support a failed businessman and crude misogynist who brags about grabbing women and faces nearly two dozen sexual assault allegations, and how you could get them to support you instead. Despite all that, they don’t.

1. So tired of people dumping on white women.

We vote for Dems much more than white men do.
The key is education. Make sure women are educated.


Now, also start working on white men.

Further, what is the source of data? If it’s exit polls, it’s garbage. Mail in ballots are used in reliably blue states such as Oregon and Washington, and this year in PA, where there was a turnaround of about 120k, among other states.

I want to see the data and learn how it was collected.

3. I think the point is that the ROI is much better for us...

...when spending on campaigns in minority districts instead of dead-red areas.
