Class, of course.
All Bourgeoisie political parties play demographic favorites, or they don't exist as political parties for very long, even if they cheat and play dirty tricks on an industrial scale it isn't enough to simply ignore the Proletariat altogether. At the same time, they like to divide the people up which makes them all easier to control, such as injecting racism and accusations of racism into the public discourse. This is one of those times in history where there is a political tension between seeing the need to at least pretend to help working people out if not actually help them out, and wanting to screw them over without apologies or justifications.

You're saying that the Democrats have been playing demographic-favorites, and Trump is simply a *reaction* to that, so that we have an almost *arbitrary*, demographic-schism in terms of treatment of the electorate by the two capitalist political parties.
Please elaborate.
