Ruy Teixeira on How the Democrats Lost the Working Class | The Good Fight with Yascha Mounk
Ruy Teixeira is a political scientist, the co-founder and politics editor of The Liberal Patriot, and the author, with John Judis, of The Emerging Democratic Majority and, most recently, Where Have All the Democrats Gone?: The Soul of the Party in the Age of Extremes.
In this week’s conversation, Yascha Mounk and Ruy Teixeira discuss how Democrats lost the working class and what it might take to win it back; how Teixeira's theory that demographic change would favor the Democratic Party has been misinterpreted; and why Democrats, despite Trump’s unpopularity, have failed to open up a decisive lead in the polls.

The host sure hogs a lot of the interview time.

Yascha Mounk is an intellectual heavyweight himself on the left. Make no mistake this isn't an interview, this is a debate. Final point: it makes Democrats uncomfortable to hear Trump support isn't explained by racism. They always fidget and cut off Ruy hearing this.

There is an incredible arrogance in the modern left towards the working class, a deep loathing in fact, there is a snobbery problem on the left.
