Perhaps, but that wasn't this campaign. This campaign on the Rep side was scary-brown-murderers-and-rapists. That was by far the majority of what I heard from their campaign, and even their street signs. Stoking fear.

And while neither party really fights for the labor class, the Dems -over objections from Reps- favored (and implemented) increased minimum wage to help those folks. The Reps opposed, and in AZ there was a ballot measure to exempt tip-workers from minimum wage. Which was defeated, showing yet again that individual Dem positions (like increasing minimum wage) are popular.

As for stuff like trade, both parties favor that over labor. Both parties are dependent on corporate/manufacturing lobbyists and donations. The Reps have historically -and I think it continues to this day- favored less regulation, less oversight, freer trade**.




**Though the convict's tariff idea does go counter to that.
