It's a fact that white men overwhelmingly support Trump. You don't like that? Well do a better job convincing white men to not like Trump.

And yes, if white men didn't vote (I never said take away their vote lmao), Democrats would never lose another election again.

Just like if women stopped voting, Republicans would never lose an election again. You seem to get upset over facts. I'm sorry about that.
