We would be better off as a country if liberals did more to understand why the American voters see Trump's priorities as better aligned with their lived experience and adjust their policy positions accordingly.

That would have been good advice in the 50’s, too. We could have avoided all that messy ‘civil rights’ stuff and just let blacks keep hoping for the rights they were promised in 1864. And 1778. And so many times in between. (And keep being lynched, of course.)

We could let gays keep killing themselves (looking at you, Alan Turing among others) and self hating because their biology didn’t align with one particular chapter in a book written by goat herders in a small village 2000 years ago. That would have saved a lot of angst, too.

And we could just get rid of those socialistic programs like the ACA and messy regulations at the FDA and FAA, bust the unions and chop those intrusive guys at the ATF and FBI down to size, too.

Oh what a wonderful world it’s gonna be. I can’t imagine why liberals don’t see it that way.
