I’m dedicated to BLUE STATES in accordance to the 1980 and 1984 election wins by Ronald Reagan.
The alphabet network TV “news” shows flipped the colors, after that, in order to confuse west coast voters.
RED STATES despite the liberal media effort and propaganda, remain COMMUNIST / LEFTIST / PROGRESSIVE / SOCIALIST !
It is indeed no accident that the red and blue state idea was deliberately flipped to eliminate the association between liberalism and communism. “Red” always indicated leftism.
You are certainly correct that for the sake of TV blue once
represented the GOP and red represented the Democrats.
I’ve always been under the impression that the reason it
switched was because the asshat Democrats were butt hurt
because the association between the color red and
communism hurt their brand even though the association
was appropriate. I’m not even sure that many Dems of
today would care.
