As 90-95% of blacks vote democrat, as do 70% of Latinos and Asians, the more racial diversity we have, the more elections become simply a racial head count, as opposed to a contest of ideas.

It will change. The problem is that it will take a *long* time. For a good 100 years after they showed up en masse, starting in the 1870’s, Italians provided a fairly reliable super-majority of their votes for the Dems. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Americans#Politics That is why we need to stanch the flood of new immigrants immediately, the way it was halted in the 1920’s. That pause gave the GOP the breathing room it needed to recover in the voting booth. Over time, the children of immigrants assimilate by sleeping with the enemy (i.e. marrying the offspring of native-born Americans). But that process takes many decades, as the political history of Italian-Americans demonstrates.
