So how much of what he's talking about doing is just a rehash of what Michelle Obama was talking about years ago?

It is important that dems point that and any other situation where reps adopt dem positions. Dems do a good job of designing and implementing policies for the whole of society and screw it up by not emphasizing how those policies improve the lives of the average person. Reps, OTOH, do a good job designing and implementing policies for the rich and convince Trump's "poorly educated" that their lives will be improved. What's even more baffling is reps taking credit for dem policies for which they voted against and Trump's "poorly educated" swallowing it all: "hook line and sinker".

Being "poorly educated" doesn't make you stupid; just misinformed. Being poorly educated can be fixed; being stupid cannot. The vast majority of Trump's "poorly educated" are not stupid but what I think they do have in common with the misinformed is their resistance to the demographic changes that are taking place in the country. LBJ got it right: If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." After he signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, he reportedly said to Bill Moyers: Well, I think we may have lost the south for your lifetime " and mine.'

This demographic drama is still playing itself out with an ever expanding demographic pool.
