That's the provocative thesis advanced by David Bernstein in a new piece for Politico Magazine:
If Trump wins the GOP nomination, he will be testing the limits of a strategy that has long haunted the Republican Party. Since the civil rights era, the Republicans have relied heavily upon white male voters in order to overcome a disadvantage among minorities and some subsets of women. Mathematically, that was an easier strategy a half-century ago, when white men dominated the electorate. But as the GOP failed to broaden its coalition and the demographics of America have shifted dramatically, an ever-greater percentage of white men has been required to secure a GOP victory.
And if, as it appears, Trump's opponent in the general election is Hillary Clinton, his lane becomes even narrower....
The math suggests Trump would need a whopping 70 percent of white men to vote for him. That's more than Republicans have ever won before - more than the GOP won in the landslide victories of Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, and far more than they won even during the racially polarized elections of Barack Obama....

Open the Canadian Border, now!
Yes, that’s it in a nutshell.
I suspect that you are correct.
To wit, at a family gathering last weekend, the subject of Trump came up, and one of my very liberal brothers surprised his fellow liberal doche bags by saying he likes some of things Trump says. Lord Almighty, they just went full ape shite on him. He backed away from his statement to calm them down, but later he cornered me in private and said “F them. I’m voting for Trump.”
What I’m trying to demonstrate is that in public, most people will say what they believe is politically and socially acceptable, but in the privacy of a voting both, they’ll select whichever candidate they believe best represents their interests.
That bears repeating:
“The gravest sin of the American mainstream media has been to divide, collate and quantify this country’s people into categories, instead of looking at them as individuals.”

With every one of these silly, Orwellian articles it hits the nose more and more:
You can smell their fear.
Your daily balkanized political report from the left, right here!
The goal is to render white people politically moot and irrelevant by importing millions of primitive 3rd worlders.
It’s simple math.
Hey, Greg Sargent - for your consideration - Diamond and Silk.
WHITE PAINT ON AISLE 8!
Libs don’t want whites voting for the Dems anymore because they are now pronounced an rightly oppressed “minority.”
