Basically their pie is shrinking, say retaliate against their bordering factions, wokeness versus Republicans and tech clash versus the internet.

Okay.

Republicans.

Meanwhile, they had been disrupted by Chinese manufacturing.

So, uh,

So their pie is shrinking.

So that's why because, you know, people talked about how all these Rust Belt guys had lost their jobs and Trump started saying he was one who said China, China, China.

Remember in 2015?

Oh, yes.

Right.

So China had not yet disrupted the Democrats, so they didn't care about it.

The Internet was not yet on Republican radars.

They didn't care about it.

So in the mid 2010s, if you look at their rhetoric, Republicans cared about China because it had been taking their jobs and Democrats cared about the Internet because it'd been taking their jobs.

OK, so Trump was a reaction of Republicans versus Democrats.
