I was too flip. These people:

I know what you'll say now... "But Hillary was basically an old line Republican." Maybe. I tend to think she was close to that. But a lot of conservatives I know didn't see it that way. They didn't trust her. They remembered her as Bill's progressive wife... the one who'd bring us single payer health care, federally mandated maternity leave, etc.
Are also motivated by misogyny too. (Yes, that's a different kind of prejudice).

So we're clear, there are lots of principled conservatives who work in Washington and other "elite" places (by which I mean in jobs requiring an education) who just don't care about the racially disparate outcomes of their policy choices. They just don't represent conservative voters, who do care.
