Has nothing to do with age.

Every year the white birth rate goes down. Today it's the lowest of the four main ethnic groups in the country. Every year white working class voters get older. That's just a fact. Take a look at Reagan's 2 victories. +10% popular vote in 1980. +18% in 1984 with 525 EVs.

Republicans won 3 times in the last 5 tries for the White House, but in 2 of those 3, including 2016, we couldn't swing the popular vote.

In 1984 Regan won Texas with 63.6% of the vote. In 2012 that margin was down to 57.17%. In the 2016, 52%. Trump won by 36 EVs. Texas awards 38 EVs. See where were going?

Given those demographics, I'm not so sure that calling fellow Republicans traitors and agitating for their removal from the party is a winning strategy.

A quality message of pro American economic policies of lower income tax rates, tariffs and reduced regulatory burden would appeal to all demographics except one - globalist elitist corporate Free Traders.

Demographics don't matter if the message is good one. If the Republican start to play the gender, skin tone, age game they will lose because in that arena they are rank amateurs compared to the DemonRat Party.

So If the globalist Free Traitors™ think it will be business as usual by re-establishing the status quo then they may be right. If that were to happen it means then it means a quick end of the "Trump" revolution and back the the dreary status quo of de industrialization followed by socialism. Which may be what Free Traitors™ want. I see nothing so far indicating the contrary.
