Why Poor Whites Vote For the Republican Party

Democrats often portray themselves as a beacon to the poor.
Republicans "cater to the rich".

My father used to say:
The Republicans are the party of the rich.
The Democrats are the party of the poor.
The Republicans want as many people as possible to be rich.
The Democrats want as many people as possible to be poor.
Which would you rather be - rich or poor?

If these observations were reasonably accurate then my father’s logic was correct.

In order for the party of the rich to garner more votes, that party would assist as many Americans as possible to become richer.

Then this must also be true.

In order for the party of the poor to garner more votes, that party would assist as many Americans as possible to become poorer.

This kind of dastardly political sabotage is going on, in fact, right now.

I’m not so sure the GOP has its head totally screwed on straight either. A lot of them seem to be really eager for easy amnesty, not just easy immigration, not realizing that much of the invasion is by people who are just bent on evil, and who will not, in fact, settle to be docile lettuce pickers.
