Just look at the issues the Democrats are pushing: defunding the police, which hurts mostly poor and working-class neighborhoods; critical race theory, which mostly interests woke white activists (and rich-and-guilty Dem donors) but which actually sends a message of inferiority to minority youths; gender ideology, which plays less well among the more traditional and more religious working-class minorities; environmental policies that produce higher gas prices and lower employment, while pushing food prices up; open borders that drive down wages for downscale workers; and so on.
Donors and activists love this stuff. They live in neighborhoods that are mostly insulated from urban crime and disorder. Their kids will still be privileged, regardless of what theories on race are popular. Transgender issues make them feel hip and cutting-edge. Higher gas and food prices won’t affect them. And illegal immigration makes sure they don’t have to pay too much for a nannies and gardeners.

That about sums it up. When the Dems start garnering only 1/4 of the vote, we’ll know they are losing. But this 50/50 nonsense is absolutely appalling.
Add to your list the Democrat idiots in CA who decided that shoplifting anything under $950 (per day, per store) was no big deal. Now Walgreens has closed 17 stores in SF and Target is reducing hours to cut their losses (Walgreens and Target make national news, but who knows how many small business owners have just given up...) Next thing, they’ll be whining about their “food deserts”. Is there anything more RACIST than destroying the communities that minorities live in?
Yes. Doing it on purpose. Which is what they're doing.

They don’t need REAL voters anymore.
If they don’t lose them, the country is finished.
Remember though, we are talking about a GOP that is clueless in taking advantage of this.
Trump isn’t. That’s why he will win in 2024.
Democrats still get well over 90% of the black vote, and a majority of Hispanic, Asian, and Jewish votes. I don’t see that changing any time soon.
Of course, why vote for the ones that will take away your free stuff?
The very issues that establishment Republicans have been afraid to raise.
Multiracial working class does not exist according to CRT.
