Re: The Great Wall of Trump
It's not wishful thinking. They are flipping districts everywhere with demographics.
https://www.axios.com/republican-party- ... 2d50a.htmlThe single biggest threat to Republicans' long-term viability is demographics.
The big picture: The numbers simply do not lie. America, as a whole, and swing states, in particular, are growing more diverse, more quickly. There is no way Republicans can change birth rates or curb this trend — and there's not a single demographic megatrend that favors Republicans.
Why it matters: President Trump’s short-term calculation to stir up white voters with race-baiting rhetoric might very well echo for a generation.
About last night: Trump paused while speaking at a "Make America Great Again" campaign rally in Greenville, N.C., to savor supporters' new roar: "Send her back!"
"I have a suggestion for the hate-filled extremists who are constantly trying to tear our country down," Trump said. "They never have anything good to say. That's why I say, 'Hey if you don't like it, let 'em leave, let 'em leave.'"
The context, from AP: "Not since George Wallace's campaign in 1968 has a presidential candidate — and certainly not an incumbent president — put racial polarization at the center of his call to voters."
For any Republican thinking past 2020, here are numbers to fear, reported by Axios' Stef Kight:
The Hispanic share of the population has grown in every state since 2000, according to Census data.
Hispanic people now make up a quarter of the population in Florida, almost a third of the population in Arizona and 39% of Texas — all Trump states in 2016 that are becoming more winnable by Democrats.
Florida and Texas, two of the big electoral giants that voted for Trump, are witnessing the fastest non-white population growth.
This wave is only accelerating, as Stef reported in "America's majority minority future":
Next year, the entire under-18 population will be majority non-white, according to Brookings demographer William Frey.
In less than a decade, the under-30 population will be majority non-white.
Between the lines: Trump clearly thinks this is good short-term politics.
Truth is: It's unknowable, though highly debatable.
Long-term, it seems unambiguous: If you need more African American and Hispanic voters, maligning and marginalizing them strikes even some inside this White House as stupid politics.

The radicals ain't flipping seats, it's the establishment who is. Just because a seat flips doesn't mean it's AOC or Omar who will doing the flipping.

But that means you believe in borders, and allowing people in based on those who control the wall.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Tue Jul 23, 2019 10:45 amYou sure?
The wall Carlus spent his hard earned on has a gate which must be locked open during the day to allow access to a memorial and govt forestry.

Anti-immigration is not a winning platform, cracking down on illegal immigration is though. Tough on crime plays a whole lot better than anti-immigrant.

No, I don't think a coast to coast wall is the answer.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Re: The Great Wall of Trump
Trump doesn't think it's the answer either, so stop worrying about it.

That's why he won, better at selling lies than Hillary Clinton and everyone else trying to sell lies who was his competition. He's also better than them at selling the truth as well, it's a double whammy.
