Bret Stephens, in an opinion column for the NYTimes, offers an incisive analysis of the prejudice that led to Trump's election, and here's the money quote:
the politics of today’s left is heavy on social engineering according to group identity. It also, increasingly, stands for the forcible imposition of bizarre cultural norms on hundreds of millions of Americans who want to live and let live but don’t like being told how to speak or what to think. Too many liberals forgot this, which explains how a figure like Trump, with his boisterous and transgressive disdain for liberal pieties, could be re-elected to the presidency.
So, there it is, folks (though it's ironic to think of liberals as folks, since that is who they so vehemently disdain). You made the bed you're lying in.
