Trump was absolutely not the first politician who engaged in the rhetoric or platform that he did.
There were plenty of Trump-like figures (or even worse) in house and senate elections well into 21st century who did much better than trump in suburban areas.
2010 saw many get elected and re-elected, as did 2012 and 2014.
Is the left perhaps doing what Shakespeare once warned about? “There are daggers in men’s smiles”
Are there bad apples in the suburbs?
Maybe progressive activists need to prepare for the very real possibility that the suburbs simply despised trump’s conduct, but that the suburbs still contain many voters who are totally opposite of the left on the culture war, economics, and even basic things like inclusivity.
