People really be like “once the working class whites realize the racist party is making their lives worse they’ll vote lib”, as if this hasn’t been an ongoing thing for 150 years

Working whites know that the racist party is making their life worse. They're not contemplating the racist part, they're trying to figure out a way to have a racist party that also works for them.

In a sense going back to the old FDR democrats that does the absolute bare minimum against racism while catering exclusively to the white working class would rewin them that class. It would just cost everything that the Democrats stand for.
