I think there is somewhat of a bubble that Trump supporters have been in regarding a few important issues, but as far as I know, many Americans still care about healthcare, the environment, education and equality, among other issues. And Trump has basically been a negative for all of those. If I was a Democrat, those would be the foundation of my campaign, and I'm sure you will see a lot of that this fall.
Those are important issues only in the liberal bubble. Or at least they will be trumped by the economy in many voters minds. Healthcare was made a mess by Obamacare and it still hasn’t recovered. Good luck with going back to business as usual on immigration.
Equality [however you define it] plays well inside the liberal bubble but outside of it, it’s simply a voting buying scheme for democrats.
Better keep things focused on Trump the person.
