THIS SHOULD WORK:
Seems to me Jentleson stopped talking about Wisconsin. He talked about a guy in a diner in rural Michigan. It’s just mythology, these flyover people. Once upon a time in a faraway land — Michigan, Wisconsin — what’s the difference?
The point is, apparently, Democrats are sick of thinking about that guy, the “guy in a diner in rural” whatever. Once they were safely stowed in a basket — a basket of deplorables — and that worked out so disastrously that the reaction could be to obsess over these imaginary people. Are Democratic Party candidates expected to actually venture into the hinterlands? No, they’ll just worry about those people, and then they come to Madison (where I live) or Milwaukee to try to score enough votes to outnumber those diner people. That’s what Democrats do to win Wisconsin.
Good luck with that.
