I come from a family of Irish Catholic Kennedy Democrats who accept gays, are pro choice and progressive thinkers. Don't let a few nutbags jade you.
Russia is a democracy right now. The progressives are trying hard to make the world a communist utopia.
This is 2017. That isn't "mainstream" any more. (If it ever was.) If "blue collar" means manufacturing jobs, then this is blue collar America:
You'd think it would be a little bit uncomfortable claiming to be Catholic when the ACTUAL FUCKING POPE is against everything you stand for (well, except the abortion stuff, I guess).
Wrong. Those are a bunch of computer programmers sitting in a control room watching a monitor while the machines do the work. Those are WHITE COLLAR JOBS, not Blue Collar Jobs. THIS is Blue Collar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-collar_worker Democrats and Liberals have as much in common with Blue Collar Workers as the KKK does with black people.
Sigh. You totally missed my point. The point was that robots are coming for all the blue collar jobs. Truck Drivers? Gone. Factory workers? Gone. Bus drivers, mailmen, etc. Gone. Construction workers? Gone very soon. I'm sure your mental image of "Democrats and Liberals" as triggered transgender baby-murderers doesn't comport with your sepia tinged memories of the salt-of-the-earth working man, but the fact remains that if there is one force in America that is dedicated to the transfer of wealth away from what remains of the working class, it is the Republican party. The fact that they manage to get votes from them is just down to the power of divide and conquer. It is very telling that all of your "blue collar mainstream middle America" people (as represented from the images you provided) are (a) male and (b) white. I guess if you're not both of those things you're "out of the mainstream". Oh, and by the way? I live in FLINT, MICHIGAN. Ground zero for Midwest Blue Collar. Half the guys I play pickup basketball with are Auto workers (still a big truck plant in town). Hard to find a Republican among them. I guess they're "out of the mainstream" too. Well, most of 'em ARE black.
LMFAO. That's hilarious. The last time I checked, it wasn't Republicans forcing Obamacare on Middle America. And it wasn't Republicans taxing the little guy. Snort. Oh look! There's even WOMEN in there too! GASP! How can this be?! People like you keep telling me that people who work these jobs are redneck racists!
yeah....Bill Gates and Meryl Streep are really towing the commie line eh? you actually miss Senator McCarthy's black lists and witch hunts I'm guessing mags....what happened to the elite progressives Hillary catered to? They gave all their wealth and material possessions to the poor and needy?
Especially as Democrats keep pushing a for a higher minimum wage.... And here I was thinking Democrats wanted to CREATE jobs.....
Seems like the black lists and witch hunts are alive and well. It's all over TV, if you pay attention.
I pay attention but have yet to see the commies knocking at my door or giving away their toys......mags likes to use the commie line....called me one once
They are blue collar mainstream America. I'm a 3rd generation Union laborer. About a blue collar mainstream as it gets, sucka.
