The Great Conservative Migration
American Thinker.com ^ | June 3, 2021 | John Green

The results of the 2020 census are in, and the Democrats are looking very nervous. It turns out that red states are growing and blue states are shrinking. Red States are gaining three congressional seats while blue states are losing three. In fact, California will lose a seat for the first time ever. Legislative and Electoral College power is shifting in favor of the Republicans.

But the propaganda ministry is trying to convince us that this is all good news for the crime family that calls itself the Democrats. The narrative is that liberals are moving from blue states to red states and will eventually turn them blue. But as we’ve learned, if the talking heads are talking, they’re most likely lying. So, let’s examine what they’re saying.

My home state of Idaho is a perfect example of the migration. It has experienced a 17% growth in its population over the past 10 years -- the second highest in the nation (Utah was first). For most of the decade, the growth rate hovered around 1.5% annually. However, in 2020 the rate spiked to 2.9% -- almost twice the normal rate. Does it have anything to do with California being nearby? Maybe rampant homelessness, spiking crime rates, and oppressive COVID restrictions weren’t that popular with Californians after all. It seems locking the state down didn’t work any better for California than it did for Cuba -- though an escape from Newsomstan is a bit safer than giving the one-finger goodbye to the Castros.

I guess the political landscape will be shaped by whether or not the Red States benefiting from population growth will stay Red. Election integrity aside, Virginia, Georgia, and North Carolina suggest not.

I think the regime can deal with this problem easily enough. The new states of DC and PR will bring four freshly minted communist senators to the table. How many representatives?

If we’d ratify Article the First, the number of representatives would be immaterial, as the House would turn overwhelmingly red. Then we could focus on repealing the 17th amendment.

It is a fact that liberals moving to red states are turning them blue. Only a fool could ignore that. The strategy is to corrupt said red state's metropolitan areas and then control the state.

Colorado is a prime example. It's just a matter of time.

Elections are FAR more corrupt than close..

ALL “progressive/left” power originates from Electoral Fraud. ALL urban decline commences with electoral fraud. ALL OF IT.

The disenfranchised voters then leave...taking their money and their businesses..allowing the criminals to run the show.

Electoral Fraud ALWAYS precedes Leftism and Progressivism..because at the end of the day..Leftism is essentially a disordered mind/mental illness...and most people who can hold a job and are productive enough to be taxpayers are not mentally ill and reason just fine.

Those aiding and abetting local Electoral Fraud then get “theirs’ from the process starting in motion the urban declines. In the 50/60/70’s it was the bookies/the mob, by the 70/80/90’s the dope cartels, by now it has evolved into human trafficking with manifold different expressions as outlined in multiple places on the interwebs

Once the fraudulent processes are in place the networks of control assembled from decades of accumulated dirt and control crimes on one another in local and state and national politics layer and layer into a massive social/administrative/economic national mess. A slow “progression”into a nationwide dystopia.

a clean vote is always a “moderate” vote

Colorado is most likely an exception. The author refers to the 2020 Census and not the 2010 Census. To which you seem to refer. So get your fact straight.

NC voted for Trump and not putting election integrity aside, so did GA.

Dems aren't nervous. Dem voters in blue states are turning red states purple.

Here in central Pennsylvania, newcomers from blue regions have brought high levels of crime and turned peaceful communities into cesspools resembling the infamous ghetto areas of Philly and Camden. You see people on the streets because they have no jobs and no cars, but they have govt checks, and the other major source of income -- drugs. We have fires, burglaries, violent assaults, overdoses, bomb threats, and empty storefronts; it's a completely different atmosphere in an area that until recently was said to resemble "the early '60s, with internet." This is what comes of an injection of blue state population. The Democrats are in their glory.

Stop being obtuse. Kolorado was destroyed by liberals from kalifornia. Hence, the “Colorado project.” They consumed Denver and then controlled the state.

At whatever time the Red States disappear, so goes the nation. We're imploding. Dying from within. And unless God has some alternate plan, our demise is inevitable.

I'm a student of the Bible and am reading the Major Prophets. Our parallel to the collapse of, first, the northern tribes and second, the southern kingdom, is striking.

Daniel 4:17: ...... the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.

Now, the USA is celebrating the very perversion for which God destroyed Sodom? And we think, what? He'll turn a blind eye much like a doting grandfather to a favorite granddaughter?

America very well might cease to exist, and the people so determined for it to happen are not going to like what follows.
