The Democrats have lost the white working class.
In 1992, Bill Clinton won two-thirds of all white working-class voters.
Today, the numbers have reversed. Trump won two-thirds, leaving just one-third for Harris.
Meanwhile, Harris is far from winning highly educated voters to the same extent.

No candidate in history has matched Donald Trump’s performance in rural districts.
Democrats often claim that every vote lost in rural America is offset by gaining two in suburbs and cities.
But the numbers simply don’t add up.
Obama won both urban and rural districts.
Biden lost rural areas but held on to urban strongholds like Madison and Milwaukee.
Harris, however, was crushed in rural areas and couldn’t make up the difference in the cities.
A remarkable shift in just 12 years.
If Harris won more support among women than she lost among men, she would become President.
If Trump won more support among men than he lost among women, he would become President.
Trump’s equation became a reality.
