the leopards are already preparing their feast
Results have already started. This is from an
american woman today: My husband works for a
small manufacturing company and here in
southwestern PA that means most employees are
Trump voters. When the president of the company
sat them down today to tell them their annual
Christmas bonus would not come this year because
they now need to purchase at least a years worth of
products prior to January 21 st due to the proposed
tariffs, they did not understand. My husband said that
their president had to explain what a tariff is and how
it will directly hurt their company. They all thought the
foreign company paid the tariff. This is the level of
ignorance voting against their own interests here in
PA, where we failed American women and children

This project, conducted with Professor Jacob Hacker, concerns the transformation of the Democratic Party in the contemporary knowledge economy, where economic success is closely linked to urban agglomeration effects. In the context of increasing racial and ethnic diversity and growing educational, occupational, and geographic divides, how has the party managed its heterogenous coalition centered in large prosperous cities and their suburbs? The research encompasses the party at all levels: its governing priorities and actions; its organization and leadership in Washington, state capitals, and major cities; and its racially and economically diverse voter base.
