As a colored dude, it's hard to explain. I've even had white folks say, "Nah man it's not like that."

The job of politicians shouldn't be considered to be to make people feel represented. It should be to actually represent them.

If it was to make people feel represented, then I'm sorry to inform you that Donald Trump is the most successful President in my memory, perhaps the most successful ever, because that is his appeal - he makes the MAGAts feel represented, and he does so very very strongly.
