CNN’s Jennings says all the ‘Clinton guys from the 90s’ have left the Democratic Party for Trump

CNN senior political commentator Scott Jennings argued on Tuesday that the Democratic Party voter base has shifted dramatically in a generation.

In a discussion on CNN NewsNight, Jennings claimed that all the working-class people who voted for the Democratic Party in the 90s switched parties.
 
"All the Clinton guys you’re talking about – those working-class guys from the 90s – they’re all Trump guys now. And that also explains some of the evolution of the Republican platform," Jennings said.
 

The conservative commentator made the remark after liberal podcast host Chuck Rocha, a fellow panelist, expressed that the Democratic Party has lost sight of working-class people and their concerns.

"Look, I'm a non-college-educated brown man who was a teenage father when I was 19. I remember what it was like going to a payday lender to buy diapers. That‘s really hard. But that‘s where the regular people are every day," Rocha said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
