Why 2016 could be shattering for Republicans
The Washington Post ^ | November 13 at 8:30 PM | By Stanley B. Greenberg

Posted on 11/14/2015 9:12:24 AM PST by Mariner

Election Day 2016 will produce a shattering crash larger than anything the pundits anticipate because the revolutionary economic and social changes occurring in the United States have now pushed both the burgeoning new majority and the conservative Republicans’ counterrevolution beyond their tipping points.

The United States is being transformed by revolutions remaking the country at an accelerating and surprising pace. Witness the revolutions in technology, the Internet, big data and energy, though just as important are the tremendous changes taking place in immigration, racial and ethnic diversity, the family, religious observance and gender roles. These are reaching their apexes in the booming metropolitan centers and among millennials.

As the revolutions interact, they are accelerating the emergence of a new America. Consider that nearly 40 percent of New York City’s residents are foreign-born, with Chinese the second-largest group behind Dominicans. The foreign-born make up nearly 40 percent of Los Angeles’s residents and 58 percent of Miami’s. A majority of U.S. households are headed by unmarried people, and, in cities, 40 percent of households include only a single person. Church attendance is in decline, and non-religious seculars now outnumber mainline Protestants. Three-quarters of working-age women are in the labor force, and two-thirds of women are the breadwinners or co-breadwinners of their households. The proportion of racial minorities is approaching 40 percent, but blowing up all projections are the 15 percent of new marriages that are interracial. People are moving from the suburbs to the cities. And in the past five years, two-thirds of millennial college graduates have settled in the 50 largest cities, transforming them.

An income tax rate of 90% on the country club set will be a matter of immigration amnesty.

A 90% top income tax rate is a treasured goal of Barack Obama and his fellow travelers.

Trump is fighting hard to protect his children’s inheritances.

Isn’t it wonderful that the pro Islamofacists at the Compost are so concerned about Republicans?

Thanks for the reality versus the concerned wet dream of a Compost Mediot.

If what this clown writes was an accurate measure of election results, the Republicans would not hold the governorships of 32 states and control 2/3rds of the state legislatures.

This nonsense was written before the mooselimb terrorists murdered over a 100+ innocent people in Paris.

Trump and Cruz numbers will skyrocket, and when Trump says he will send the Syrian refugees back, his number will go past 50%. Greenberg is a shlep.

The so-called media is nothing more than a collective of Democrat operatives and Marxist shills. It’s incest on a grand scale.

Translation: "Hey kids, college students, 20 somethings and new to the city metrosexuals, Here's your daily propaganda dose:"

"Which cool group do you belong to?" and "Of course, you will at least accept all the cool groups." and "Are you following the trends, are you trendy, are you an atheist?" "You have given up religion haven't you? Oh, but Islam is cool, that's no problem." and "Have you moved to the big cities yet?" and "You better damn well accept we are an illegal immigrant nation." and "Diversity is cool." and "Interracial marriage is Really cool, are you hip man?" and "We're part of the counterrevolution man." and "OMG, you aren't a tea party supporter, an evangelical or religiously observant, are you?" and "You're not one of those sexist, racist, bigoted homophobes, are you."?

Drip, drip, drip. An article a day makes good little socialists. He, he.

What's pushed as cool and trendy is destroying America. If you disagree and want to have a discussion, it's "Hey, somebody come over here and help me with this guy, I'm being microaggressed!" . . There's never any discussion with them, so educate our youth with historical truth.

They're really getting worried about November 8, 2016. Fight and educate our youth against this crap!

I think that under normal events the Republican Party should worry but after the mass migration of refugees in Europe and the terrorist attack in Paris, we will be seeing a much more conservative Europe and America. The d’RATs are viewed as weak on national defense and alien refugees invading this country with Obama inviting 100s if thousand more into the US. I think this is why Donald Trump is leading by a huge majority at the polls. He is looked upon as being tough with aliens. All of us here in the US can see what is happening in Europe, as we have experienced it ourselves.

They may have a 90% rate but that doesnot mean they will pay it. They will then grant loop holes for politically correct people who will not have to pay those taxes. We raise taxes we get more loopholes. They get more campaign cash.If the do change the country this way then they should pay 90% simply(no loop holes) because it is all their fault.

“None of the demographic trends will lead to the conclusion that this article protects until after 2020”

And that presupposes we don’t do something about it first.

The media are indeed propagandists. Everything they report is according to their agenda. They spike stories that don't fit their narrative.
