How the Bernie fans at Salon really feel

We must shame dumb Trump fans: The white working class are not victims

A sample.

The intellectual deformities and disfigurements of the average Trump supporter should provoke universal disgust, but a fun game for phonies has begun to sweep the liberal world of commentary. 

Some writers, in their desire to play dress-up as Woody Guthrie, have taken to writing maudlin essays on the victimhood and pitiable state of Trump fans. 

People who applaud an inarticulate blowhard’s description of Mexican immigrants as “rapists,” cheer for proposals to ban Muslims from entry into the United States, and laugh at mockery of women’s looks and a disabled reporter’s mannerisms, are actually deserving of sympathy. 

According to the Guthrie poseurs, if liberals fail to cry crocodile tears for their idealized version of the “white, working class,” they are actually responsible for the putrid rise of Trump.

And the BLM rioters in Baltimore and all over America?

And yet, they hammer Hillary and the DLC Democrats for abandoning unions and working class interests.
