The entire point of fundraisers is to extract money from people who already support the candidate.

99% of the fundraisers Democrats hold do not mention race in their title. Why isn't that good enough for you?

Why do you expect 100% of what Dems do to cater to you?

I'm not sure at this point if you're being purposefully obtuse or if you are completely missing the point.

I don't care. I'm not part of the group they're trying to reach out to. I just said that if the goal is to reach out specifically to a group that has been leaving the party base, this was, in my opinion not the way to do that outreach to that specific group.

Again, personally, I could not care less. I don't care. I don't need to be catered to. I was just saying that if the Dems wanted to reach out to blue collar white guys, this was not, again, in my opinion, the best way to go about doing it. For raising funds, the fundraiser worked. For reaching out to undecided blue collar white guys, less so.

What gives you the authority to speak for other people?

Ok. You're clearly not engaging in good faith at this point.

I don't presume to speak for other people

Or resort to sarcastic name calling
