David Axelrod Says Democrats' Problem Is They're Becoming A Smarty-Pants, Suburban, College-Educated Party'

David Axelrod expressed concern that the Democratic Party is alienating working-class voters, becoming overly associated with college-educated suburbanites instead of engaging authentically with diverse working classes.

Axelrod highlighted that Democrats only gained support from white college graduates in the recent election, with notable losses among working-class voters, indicating a significant disconnect.

He criticized the party's approach towards working people as misguided, suggesting they shouldn't behave like missionaries trying to convert voters to their perspective, which creates disdain.

Chuck Todd echoed concerns, stating that coastal strategists are misreading how to connect with working-class voters, leading to Republican gains with demographics traditionally aligned with Democrats.
