Trump tweets, part 14 (man this shit just gets stupider and stupider)
And it's not even really Trump himself at the moment, but all his fucking dumbass supporters (and, also, even some anti-Trump people doing some seriously goofy shit).
Previous post, as always.
Dear Mr. President Elect @realDonaldTrump.
I respectfully ask why it is OK to protest Obama, but unfair to protest you.
Please answer. pic.twitter.com/yDazdeNjTn

1. Know what kills me most about the idea that we should overlook racism/sexism/anti-Islam to empathize w/the #EconomicAnxiety of the WWC?
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
2. Our black president has done more to turn around the economy & lift up the white working class than ANY white Republican president.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
3. He saved the auto industry when Trump would've let it die "like a dog."
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
4. He made a massive investment in infrastructure designed to stimulate the economy and create working-class jobs-and was demonized for it.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
5. He staked his ENTIRE LEGACY on making the first stride toward universal healthcare possible-and was demonized even further.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
6. THROUGHOUT his two terms, his approval rating among the non-college-grad white working class-the Trump base-dropped like a rock.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
7. Tea Party rallies trashed him with bigoted slogans, the GOP shared racist memes, the RW echo chamber fed the beast with false news.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
8. With "socialist Muslim birther" fervor at its peak, Obama's WWC approval tanked to around 25%. Who led the charge against him? TRUMP.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
9. Yes, we so quickly forget that Trump CAME TO POLITICAL POWER by sabotaging our current president & making WWC voters despise him.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
10. Today unemployment is 4.9%-vs. 9%+ in the economy Obama inherited from GWB. In 2008, GDP FELL 0.1%. Under Obama, it's GROWN 3-4% a year.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
11. Yes, lots of America hasn't felt this rebound-but NOTHING TRUMP PROMISED is intended to fix that, while Clinton's plans did.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
12. You may claim Trump won due to #EconomicAnxiety. The truth is he won by doing what the Right has done for 8 years of Obama, more bigly.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
13. E.g., slandering our president, demonizing immigrants, dehumanizing minorities and making vague, unsupported statements of patriotism.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
14. So miss me with the whole "empathy for white #EconomicAnxiety" trope. Any uncertainty felt by WWC is inevitably DOUBLE for POC WCs.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
15. If you're a Dem crying hot salty tears for the WWC, tell me how POC workers managed to not fall for Trump's message? WHAT could it be?
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
16. It's because his message was vague patriotic bullshit wrapped in outright hate speech-& most black, Asian, Latino voters spat it out.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
17. You want Dems to get it back? Don't "collaborate" with Trump to "minimize his damage." Stick to progressive ideals. Block bad policies.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
18. Act like you've got a pair of MF'ing ovaries, STAND YOUR GROUND for what you believe to be right, good and true, & CALL TRASH TRASH.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
19. Don't dismiss white working class America's concerns, but don't fall into the garbage trap of ignoring YOUR BASE of POCs to chase WWCs.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
20. Finally, everyone making that ridiculous claim that "whites who voted for Obama didn't suddenly become racist when they voted for Trump?
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
21. Ever considered that those voters ROSE ABOVE their racism to vote for Obama? That eight years of vile slander has "brought them home"?
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
22. We won't fix racism by ignoring it in order to fix the economy. Engage the truth. BUILD BRIDGES, yes, but not with our f*cking BODIES.
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 11, 2016
23. Addendum: Some people have been demanding data. Here's @KaiserFamFound's survey of WWC. Please read. https://t.co/u5kRhXcuLh
- Jeff Yang (@originalspin) November 12, 2016
24. According to survey, 76% of WWC "optimistic" about lives. 2/3 "satisfied" w/financial status. 72% have FT jobs @freddiedeboer @tedlieu
