Key Reasons Cited Across Sources
  • Union Decline & Cultural Disconnect
    In Rust Belt Union Blues, researchers Lainey Newman and Theda Skocpol argue that the erosion of union power has weakened the Democratic Party’s connection to working-class communities. As unions faded, so did the grassroots infrastructure that once tied these voters to Democratic candidates.
  • Perceived Elitism & Class Blindness
    Joan C. Williams, in her book Outclassed: How the Left Lost the Working Class – And How to Win Them Back, suggests that Democrats have become culturally disconnected from working-class Americans. She highlights how progressive rhetoric often alienates voters who feel their economic struggles are ignored in favor of identity-based issues.
  • Focus on “Woke” Issues Over Economic Concerns
    A post-election analysis from RiftTV lists reasons for the Democrats’ 2024 defeat, including a perceived overemphasis on cultural and progressive issues—such as gender policies and climate agendas—while neglecting core economic concerns like inflation, wages, and crime. This disconnect reportedly pushed many working-class voters toward Republican candidates.

The left can blame Trump all they want - but that isn't what their own voters are saying.

Please - keep heading down that road - it is working so well for the party (sarcasm), it also pretty much insures a long period of GOP leadership.

We owe them a debt of gratitude. IMHO
The approval charts speak for themselves. You asked. I answered. And supported by answer.

oh look - Trump - - - - - - - - - - - -

Democrats still losing working class people from the deck of the Titanic while pointing to another ship saying at least it is not as bad as that.
The Democrats are losing working class voters, but the Republicans are not going to keep them on the culture ware sex stuff alone.
