I think a more urgent problem is overcoming government school brainwashing of the next generation. The Republican brand has become attractive to new voters, not just to bitter middle-aged victims of government overreach.

So Republicans need to fully engage in identity politics, just like their Rat colleagues?

I'll go along a little with weak minded, Women for Trump, Latinos for Trump, Blacks for Trump, Union Workers for Trump, Law Enforcement for Trump ... this group and that group for Trump. However, it divides Americans into identity groups. My identity is Old White Religious Conservative Heterosexual Educated American Small Businessman. That doesn't fit on a sign, but I'll settle simply for American.

I contend that all people desire essentially the same things - life, freedom, liberty and prosperity. Make the connection between policy, laws and regulations (lack thereof) and those four things and you have a winning combination. Effectively contrast between with what others propose or have done and you have victory.

The problems with Republicans are they don't make the argument and they often agree with Democrats.

She’s correct - to offset the increasing number of “woke whites.”

More than doable, as the trends in the last election indicate. The efforts must be redoubled, since we know they are effective. I can see in the future you have crowds of woke whites shouting at a crowd of minorities that they are anti-minority racists with the way things are going now.

“Demographics is destiny”, yes, but the demographic is not one of skin color or ethnicity but one of ignorance.

No, we need to defeat and destroy the narrative of identity politics by proving it isn’t true. But pretending the reality that the narrative does exist isn’t an issue won’t get us anywhere. We have the fight on the turf of reality.

That is so stupid. Why should the Republican Party become Democrat Party LITE? If you want to chop up and divide the American people into all these little groups and constituencies, and then deceitfully pit them all against each other, just to scrape up some extra votes, then go join the Democrat Party now!

Where does that phrase you are responding to imply such a thing...at all?

We’re not voting our way out if Trump fails in the courts. There will be 30 million new citizens made out of illegals. A 700% promised surge in refugees, people who will not even have the education to speak their own language correctly (as my Spanish mother notes of illegals—she calls them “a people with no language,” since they speak in expletives and gutter Spanish) from all around the world.

The first amendment will be trashed. Even Parler could at some point be shut down. Gab has no funding abilities. PayPal, Visa, shut even the families of Gab owners off. That latter point I only heard recently in an owner newsletter from Gab. Individuals, not just the business entity, are barred from using credit and debit cards.. The entire website is funded just by Bitcoin, which few people know how to use.

Parler, and any other free speech alternative, will soon suffer the same fate. No advertising. No payment processors. No mainstream CDNs, having to use the most expensive providers because Cloudfare will ban you. American registrars will ban you, putting you at the mercy of foreign ones.

It’s really quite amazing that Free Republic hasn’t suffered at all yet.

But the bottom line is that we’re not going to win any further elections at this point. It’s done.

I live in California and ‘get it’. I’ve warned people for years but they still stick their head in the sands and repeat stupid mantras like.....they’re church goers, they’re natural conservatives, ad nauseum.

Right there, in the title. The Republican Party must even further become Democrat Party LITE by similarly divvying up the American population into all these little groups and constituencies. Why play the Democrat Party's destructive game of identity politics? And to where has identity politics led the United States? I would hope conservatives would reject identity politics out of hand.

No, it depends on forcing the states to FOLLOW THE LAWS about voting in their states and free and fair elections. If the Rats are allowed to steal this race, the republic is doomed.

It depends on a new political party and stopping future vote fraud.

Absent this, it depends on our ability to wage a REAL war to put down the Left’s coup.

Yes we need more non white voters, because white voters are becoming more stupid by the day.
Suburban whites have let public schools and colleges poison their minds.

It depends on less ballot harvesting and more ID requirements.

The GOP had plenty enough this time...if they had the balls to figure out where they fraudulently went.

I love this. Our vote was stolen, defrauded, changed, subtracted etc... And we’re being lectured about how to get more voters to win elections.

Maybe we need to convince them somehow that carving out racial privileges for them doesn’t really do them any good?

But of course it does them good - lots and lots of good, in fact.

Baloney. The phrase does not say that.

Sure it does; read it again. It's all about making the Republican Party engage in the same identity politics as the Democrat Party, thus turning it into Democrat Party LITE. Why would anyone want a watered-down Democrat Party LITE when they can have the original Democrat Party?

The Republican Party must avoid identity politics like the plague.
