Lunch box Joe promises to sacrifice blue collar workers on the altar of a green economy

All Democrats had to do is run sane, normal people for president to beat Trump, and they can't find any.

Sally Kohn, looks like a white man, talks like a white man, dresses like a white man too, but is afraid white men will vote for Trump

Yeah, so? Look at you, you blue collar pervert.

Here.

Hillary lost to Obama in Wisconsin in 2008 by 193,000 votes in the Democrat presidential primary: Can she do it again?!

Total turnout in the Democrat presidential primary in 2008 was 1.11 million.

The question this year is whether Bernie Sanders will drive Democrat turnout there to a similar conclusion, or will Democrats cross over in large numbers to vote for Trump. The primary is open.

It would seem Sanders' natural voters are not the working class, in which case Democrats crossing over for Trump would come from Hillary's voters. It could be both: enthusiasm for Bernie among the young and far left boosting his turnout, and enthusiasm for Trump from the blue collars boosting Trump's. In which case Hillary and Cruz might be disappointed today in Wisconsin.

Fewer than 403,000 votes were cast in the Republican presidential primary in 2008, which was won by McCain with 225,000 votes. Huckabee ran second, and won in the western and central part of the state where Trump is supposed to be strong in 2016. Pretty odd. The ARG poll had picked McCain to win Wisconsin by 8, who won it by 17.8. This time around ARG is picking Trump by 10 against six recent polls showing Cruz by an average of 6.5.

ARG is also showing Hillary by 1 as polls open this morning. The Real Clear Politics poll average has Sanders ahead by 2.6.

Long lines of enthusiastic Wisconsinites at all Trump venues in recent days, despite the gaffes which upset polite society political correctness, argue for a stronger showing by Trump today than the consensus would suggest.

Trump's base, working poor and blue collar Americans, is ENORMOUS: At least 57% of all earners!

The average blue collar worker makes $32,000 a year in 2016.

In 2014 up to 90 million workers made only that much, or less.

They're YUGE!

Trump in August 2013: The people I resonate best with, my base, are poor people and blue collar people, working class people

Here, with Greta Van Susteren during one of Obama's sumptuous, too long vacations in August 2013.

Trump is winning today because he has long understood who is his base, what to say to it, and how to keep it.

The histrionic invectives against Trump by elites in the political parties, government,  the media, entertainment, the academy and the church are really invectives against the people who still work, who make this country work.

If elites want to stop Trump, the only way they can do it is to co-opt the support of the working class, and unfortunately for the elites, they've erected an entire system over decades designed explicitly to screw the working class.

The chickens . . . have come home . . . to roost.

Ben Domenech says Trump and Cruz stole Rand Paul's libertarian foreign policy

Here for The Federalist.

But Domenech never mentions how Trump stole something else: attracting hordes of people to his appearances who come from all walks of life, but especially blue collar independents and Democrats.

That's what Rand Paul hoped to do all along, recreating the Republican brand.

Trump is succeeding at what elite libertarians have only been able to dream of politically, but now that they've got what they wished for they want nothing to do with it because Trump is uniting people through a conservative value: patriotic American nationalism.

Rand Paul doesn't get it, and neither does Domenech: Americans are conservative much more than they are libertarian.
