. . . remember that Democrats have broken the 50 percent barrier in presidential elections only twice since 1944.
One of those two times was 1976, when the donks managed a whopping 50.08%.

In that map, blue = Republican, right? Meaning that the colors are correct for once.

It used to be traditional that Blue was the party in office and red was the challenger party. But in the first Presidential election in the age of the internet (2000), Republican became “Red States” and Democrat became “Blue States” because George W. Bush was the challenger party candidate. And it stuck.

Thanks for correcting the commie media’s forcing of red on us. They are the stinking reds.
