HRC made that abundantly clear when she essentially called these people a basket of deplorable. The DNC and the Democratic Elites including the ethnic ones live in their own urban coastal bubble.
As a dark skinned homosexual black man I've received more bigotry and racism at the hands of so-called liberals than from any of the deplorable red necks I've been known to run with.
Pretty much sums up one of the major issues with the Democrats.
One of the things I always liked about the red necks is that unless you are messing with them they are perfectly content to leave you alone. Liberals and progressives appear to be genetically incapable of leaving people alone. The open hostility they have to, among other things, Christianity is one of the the reasons Hillary lost. Say what you like about Trump, he is not openly hostile to Christianity.
