#### A Materialist Analysis of US Election Results
[Why Are Poor Americans Voting for the Party of the Rich? | Ones and Tooze Podcast](https://lnns.co/lANz_msVn-U) #materialism

Adam Tooze gave from what all I have read, a really fresh analysis of the US election results from a materialist theory perspective. It's a rather long quote I picked out from the transcript, but it's really worth it. I really like the high analogy at the end between Kamala as a "spelling-bee girl" and Trump as a "high-living frat boy", both throwing a party and where the "academically unambitious high-school girls" (an analogy of white non-college educated women) would go.
Adam Tooze gave, from all that I have read, a really fresh analysis of the US election results from a materialist theory perspective. It's a long quote I picked out from the full transcript, but it's really worth reading. I really like the middle school analogy at the end between Kamala as a "spelling-bee girl" and Trump as a "high-living frat boy", both throwing a party and where the "academically unambitious high-school girls" (an analogy for white non-college educated women) would go.

The Professional Managerial Class (PMC) as an analytical category that I covered in the sections above also make an appearance.
