terms "feminist Democrat" and "female Fortune 500 CEOs" are intended to be denigrating, are they not (rhetorical)?

3.) Your claim to know not only what "non-college educated whites" think but also that they think it "justifiably" is quite the patting-of-one's-self-on-the back-type clairvoyance.

4.) That you apparently believe your example of what Democrats "care more about" AND that such an example is...justifiable, IS PATENTLY ABSURD BORDERING ON BIZARRE.

How DARE you posit that Democrats have not historically been on the side of and have since 1935 been trying to pass legislation to help the "non-college educated," the downtrodden, the working poor, the hungry, the infirm, the elderly, the homeless (Kamala had a well-considered housing plan): Social Security; Medicare; Medicaid; SNAP; Workmen's Comp; Unemployment Benefits; Minimum Wage; Child Labor Laws; OSHA; the ACA; the now-defunct Biden Capping of Insulin Costs; and more.
