Getting mugged by reality can have that effect. "When you insult voters you may need someday, they probably aren't going to vote for you; and when you mud-wrestle with pigs, the pigs enjoy it." Better to rely on logic and content. "There are legitimate criticisms of Trump's policies, personnel choices, temperament and integrity. These should be pointed and sharp without getting in the pit." Exactly, and consider the possibility that a Trump presidency might be the consequence of decades of failures of the Received Wisdom. "But there were many non-bigots who voted for him, venting their anxieties and frustrations, feeling that elites -- politicians, personified by Clinton, academics, the media, Wall Street -- looked down on them. They relished that Trump was giving those elites hell."
Feeling that elites looked down on them. Why would that be?
Fine. There's a strong case that the Wise Experts have gotten it wrong, and politer Democrats are still apologists for Wise Experts.
