[July 2018] The Democrats’ White Voter Problem
Splice Today ^ | July 2018 | Chris Beck

Alienating blue-collar whites is a sure way to keep losing.

One of the laws of gravity in American politics is that the opposition party gains ground in the midterm elections, so the Democrats should be a lock to win control of at least the House of Representatives in November, requiring a net gain of 23 seats. Then again, it’s hard to say what rules still apply after Trump’s win. Maybe the slate’s been wiped clean and we’re starting from scratch again.

While there are plenty of signs that the Democrats can fulfill historical expectations four months from now, a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll feeds that persistent voice that they’re capable of laying another egg. Millennials have drifted away from the Party over the past two years. More and more 18-34-year-olds are remaining undecided, open to a third-party candidate, or not planning to vote.

This trend is particularly pronounced among white Millennials, in particular men, which the Democrats should find troubling because in 2016 white Millennials cast two out of three votes in that category. In a party where it’s not fashionable to say anything positive about white people, and disparaging them meets little resistance, this isn’t exactly an epiphany. Older white Democratic party voters have either come to accept their lowered status or they actively participate in their own stereotyping out of a need to virtue signal or expiate guilt, but it appears that the younger ones are getting turned off by the Democrats’ race obsession. Voters past a certain age rarely switch to another party, but the younger ones need to be lured in.

The MSM-Democrats have targeted blue-collar whites for marginalization, followed by extinction.

They will become the Afrikaners of the New North America; this is the model the progressives aiming to implement.

The "bitter clingers" and "deplorables" will be disarmed, herded into compounds and eventually into concentration camps, and then will be done away with. This, at least, is the plan, going back to Mark Rudd, Bill Ayres, and Bernardine Dohrn. They now think they're closer than ever to implementing it.

Good plan... in theory.

It just dawned on me, the MSM, Hollywood and Democrats have been trying skew perceptions about race and people with sex issues. They’ve done such a good job of it that Dimocrats believe their own propaganda.

Now they seem to have convinced themselves that they don’t need the votes of white people, Christians or America loving people to win an election.

Personally, I think the only reason it hasn't happened is the Second Amendment.
