Democrats' 'massive blind spot' on male voters exposed by New York Times columnist
Fox News ^ | July 10, 2025 | Marc Tamasco

Posted on 07/12/2025 8:02:43 AM PDT by MinorityRepublican

New York Times columnist Thomas B. Edsall broke down why he believes the Democratic Party has suffered significant losses among men — across nearly all demographic groups — in the lead up to, and following, the 2024 presidential election in an essay published on Tuesday.

Edsall argued that Democrats have failed to recognize and deal with the costs of the "revolutionary change" in the societal order they have championed since the mid-1960s, which he believes has given Republicans the upper hand among men on issues based on "race, religion and sexual identity."

"The Democratic Party lost ground in the 2024 election among almost all demographic groups — White people, Black people, Latinos, the young, rural and exurban voters — but all the defections had one thing in common: Democratic losses were significantly greater among men than among women," he noted.

Edsall emphasized that not just White men — traditionally a Republican stronghold — but men across nearly all racial groups have been shifting their support away from the Democratic Party.

"The most severe declines in Democratic voting, according to Catalist, ‘were concentrated among the younger cohorts of voters, particularly young men. For instance, support for Democrats from 2020 to 2024 among young Black men dropped from 85 percent to 75 percent and support among young Latino men dropped from 63 percent to 47 percent,’" he reported.

As noted by Edsall, the share of President Donald Trump's voters who are White fell from 88% in 2016 to 78% in 2024, showing the increasing diversity of the party.

On the other hand, the Democratic Party is becoming more and more White, with the White share of Democratic voters growing from 60% in 2016 to 64% in 2024, according to the Pew Research Center.

Let us see if I have these logic equations correct.

Diversity = Good

Less White People = More Diversity

Therefore:

White People are bad.

We need to keep the issue low profile so that we can surprise them again. We need more of their girlie-men up front.

That covers it all on their lack of ability to govern anything.

It’s the Gay stuff. Black and Latino men really don’t like gays, a lot.

The hot chicks are on the right. Leftists aren’t “hot,” unless you like fat, nose-rings, tatttoos, blue and/or dreadlock hair, and the fashion sense of Rosa DeLauro.

Well the Democrats are offering to sexually mutilate their kids for free.

Wonder why men don’t want to vote for that? /sarc

The irony is the more DEI they push, the whiter their party gets.

To summarize: Leftists have been very successful in getting their message out to men.

YES! THATS IT!

The Democrats just need to push their views harder. Because white men aren’t convinced how good they are for them.

Because the childishness of the left became exposed and the sane people voted center-right.

That they even have to ‘understand what happened’ is their problem. They insist that they’re inclusive and tolerant, except for anyone that is slightly not aligned, then they’ll engage is the most hateful vitriol imaginable in the name of ‘not tolerating intolerance’. Convenient and childish thinking.

Gender identity, sexual habits, interpersonal relationships, and emotional maturity, constitute perhaps 5% of a person's time and activity.

I am completely at a loss why a 5% stock of an individual consumes the other 95% of their priorities? To me, from people I know with diverse identities and sexuality who are of sound solid character, such issues are rarely or at least proportionate in public debate on their part. They have real things to focus on.

Now people I know that are rarely employed successfully, constantly distraught, always pointing a finger, full of destructive drama, and fail at every interpersonal relationship, are obsessed with DEI, trans issues and bothers.

Manage your lives people! I respect your 5% and am waiting for you to deliver ideas, goals, and accomplishments that more accurately reflect who and what you are as a person.

I recall the SNL “election watch” skit after the 2016 election. One of the few times they nailed it. It demonstrated how minorities were awaking to how idiotic white woke liberals are.
