Educated professionals are insulated from many of the problems that Trump voters complained about. And they're isolated from the information ecosystem that Trump voters get their news from.
This is a huge problem for the Democrats.

Andy Rooney landed on the beach of Normandy days after D-Day, 80 years ago today. In 2004, he shared a firsthand account of “a day unlike any other.”
“It’s hard for anyone who has been in a war to describe the terror of it to anyone who hasn’t,” he said. https://t.co/xknrIeLymT.
"The only thing we can do now is catch our breath and dive headfirst into tweaking the school funding formula so that we’re not in the same place next year,” said Sen. Andrew Zwicker. https://t.co/dFU5joNnl6

Core CPI came in high for the eighth month in a row.
Annual rates:
1 month: 4.4%
3 months: 4.2%
6 months: 3.9%
12 months: 3.8%
For perspective, the 3/6/12 month rates higher than any time from 1992-2019. Inflation remains unusually high.
It’s always a great day when I get to speak w/ students on issues that are important to them, especially when it’s students from my alma mater. We spoke about the need for more resources to fight food insecurity, funding for mental health services, and tuition assistance support.
To Recap:
Speaker Johnson said he wouldn’t pass a national security bill without a border deal.
President Biden and a bipartisan group of Senators negotiated a border deal.
Speaker Johnson rejected the border deal.
The Senate passed a national security bill without a border deal.
Speaker Johnson says he won’t bring the national security bill for a vote because it doesn’t include a border deal.
Make it make sense!
Mitt Romney: “I think the border is a very important issue for Donald Trump. And the fact that he would communicate to Republican senators and congresspeople that he doesn't want us to solve the border problem because he wants to blame Biden for it is is really appalling."
I wrote a thing about the 6 articles I found interesting/important of last year. These cover most of the bases of things I'm interested in: special districts, preemption, municipal incorporation, various public finance issues. https://t.co/3Ym74ZDbmF
