A significant shift is taking place in the American political landscape. While the Democratic party is becoming more white, more female, and more educated, the Republican party is becoming a more racially diverse, working-class party.
The irony is delicious. Democrats love to accuse Republicans of being white supremacists, yet it is the Democratic party that’s becoming more white.
Axios seems surprised by this news:
1 big thing: Seismic shiftDemocrats now have a bigger advantage among white college graduates than they do with nonwhite voters, Axios’ Josh Kraushaar writes from a New York Times/Siena College poll.Why it matters: We’re seeing a political realignment in real time.
- Democrats are becoming the party of upscale voters concerned more about issues like gun control and abortion rights.
- Republicans are quietly building a multiracial coalition of working-class voters, with inflation as an accelerant.
What’s happening: House Republicans boast this year’s class of new candidates is the most diverse in history.
- The NRCC notes that 29 of its 75 House targets have a Hispanic population over 15%.
One of the reasons for this is the economy, but it also has to do with people not wanting to be told they’re committing violence if they don’t believe men can get pregnant.
The Daily Wire has more on this:
A New York Times/Siena College poll released Tuesday found that Democrats have a greater advantage with white college graduates than they do with nonwhite voters — and these voters are more concerned with fiercely debated issues like gun control and abortion.Meanwhile, leaning into increasing concerns about inflation and the economy, Republicans are amassing a coalition of working-class voters in what Axios dubbed a “political realignment in real time.”A Bureau of Labor Statistics report released Wednesday found that since Joe Biden took office, the average American worker lost $3,400 in their annual income due to the accelerating inflation, reported Fox Business.“There are plenty of families that that’s more than their food budget a year,” E.J. Antoni, a research fellow at The Heritage Foundation, told Fox Business. “I can’t emphasize enough how much this is really crushing consumers.”
Glenn Greenwald has a great breakdown of what’s happening here:
The Democratic party seems content to be ruled by the loudest, most woke voices on Twitter, and that’s just fine.
Millions of Americans will just go another way.
