Why blue-collar workers are going red.
[FRONTPAGEMAG] An NBC News poll released last week reflects one of the most significant political trends of the past 30 years — the realignment of blue-collar workers who’ve left the party of Planned Parenthood
...has received federal funding since 1970, when President Richard Nixon signed into law the Family Planning Services and Population Research Act. It is sometimes described as the gynecololgical wing of the Democratic party...
and Drag Queen Story Hour for the party of energy-independence, fair-trade deals and border security.

The poll shows that between 2010 and 2020, the Republican share of blue- collar votes rose from 45% to 57%. Within the same demographic, its Hispanic vote went from 23% to 36%, while its black working-class vote went from 5% to 12%.

Continued from Page 4



In 1992, Bill Clinton
...former Democratic president of the U.S. Bill was the second U.S. president to be impeached, the first to deny that oral sex was sex, the first to have difficulty with the definition of the word is...
carried 49% of counties where at least 25% of the workforce was employed in manufacturing. In 2016, Donald Trump
...His ancestors didn't own any slaves...
took 95%. What used to be one of the left’s most reliable constituencies is now going the way of evangelicals in their flight from a party that’s lost both its mind and its soul.

Writing in The bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit
... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang...
News on April 10, 2019, Terry Bowman (a 22- year UAW/Ford worker) charges: "While Democrats fight for policies that crush working-class communities, Republicans and our president are fighting for blue-collar jobs and traditional American values."

The geezer in the White House is becoming a job-killing machine. On Day One, the Keystone XL-Pipeline was axed. And that’s just a down-payment on Biden’s debt to the Greenies. But, not to worry. As John Forbes Kerry assured us, unemployed pipeline workers can get good-paying jobs manufacturing solar panels — in China.

It’s infuriating the way Democrats can speak so nonchalantly about sacrificing the opportunities of others. Campaigning in 2016, the warm and lovable Crooked Hillary Clinton
...former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away. Politix is not one of her talents, but it's something she keeps trying to do...
boasted, "We’re going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business!" This from someone who probably never lifted anything heavier than a nail file.

Under Biden’s welcome-mat policy, the Border Patrol has been ordered not to arrest illegals unless they commit multiple homicides within eyesight. He’s starting to admit the first of 25,000 "asylum" seekers, and blue-collar workers will get to pay for a process that will lead to the loss of more of their jobs.

But jobs isn’t the whole picture.

Most of the white working-class is solidly middle-American: church-going, socially conservative (pro-life, pro-marriage and pro- traditional morality). Many are gun-owners, veterans and reservists, patriotic and not embarrassed to show it and mystified by those who are. And, are you sitting down Nancy, they refuse to apologize for being white.

If a guy drives a pick-up truck with a gun-rack and a tool box in back, and an American flag decal, chances are he isn’t a community organizer who votes Democratic.

In short, workers are everything liberals have come to loathe — an animosity that’s reflected in Obama’s bitter-clingers comment, Hillary’s basket of deplorables and Biden’s dregs of society.

The Democrats have become the party of Alice-in-Wonderland social policy — the party that refuses to criticize Antifa
...the armed wing of the Democratic Party...
and Black Lives Matter even as they turn our cities into barbecue pits, the party that turns a blind eye to urban riots but sees white supremacy
...the pernicious doctrine that laws were intended to be obeyed, that society works better when people don't pour shreiking from their places of worship every Friday for a weekend of rioting over insults real or imagined; and that cannibalism, beastiality, incest, murder, theft, rape, and similar activities are bad. A Dead White European (which invalidates his opinion) philosopher once opined that societies thrive when a person's word can be relied upon, and that a society which puts individual happiness first will invariably fail. Strangely enough, other successful societies, such as China, Japan, Korea, and those kinds of places could also be lumped with white supremacist societies, since they push the same values...
everywhere, the party of defund the police and sanctuary cities, the party of climate-change cultists, the party of "Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15," the party that tried to take an innocuous reference God out of its 2012 platform, the party of child sacrifice abortion up to the moment of birth, the party of LGBTQ, and now, the party of transgenderism.

#1 Democrat - the party of hate. They define themselves by what they hate.

#2 We are The Other to them. If they can just eliminate us, they can usher in heaven on earth. Just like all the other hard left revolutionaries.

#4 A historic realignment of the parties. Dems on the very bottom and the very top but have lost the heart of America, the center. Of course they won't change their rhetoric of calling the GOP party of the rich because that's effective in their own rich feeling superior.

#5 I am 84 and was raised to be a democrat in MA where repubs were categorized in the limerick "where the cabots speak only to the lodges and the lodges only to god". It was true then but not now. How can any working man treat pelosi, schumer, biden, and harris as superiors?

#7 We are The Other to them.

We're the inverse Sally Field: they hate us... They really, really hate us.
How do they hate ya? Let us count the ways.

For that we are anti- anti-white.

For that we recognize two genders.

For that we demand border enforcement and a sensible immigration policy.

For that we demand an end to Forever Wars that aim to turn frenzied violent primitive tribesmen into Jeffersonian democrats.

For that we refuse to cringe, cower and confess our original sin of racism.

For that we oppose oligarchy, bankster bailouts and anti-competitive business practices that shovel billions to individuals who haven't created anything and companies that stifle innovation.

For that we refuse to accept the Big Lie that America's most anti-Russian president was somehow a tool of the Kremlin.

For that we refuse to see Christine Blasey or Jussie Smollett or Critical Race Theirists or BLMers as other than despicable little con artists.

For that we view Sons and Daighters of the Southern states as brothers and sisters rather than closet fascists or enemy combatants.

For that we read Shakespeare, listen to Beethoven and look at Rembrandts with pleasure and without shame or guilt.

For that we love our heritage and our nation, and will not apologize for it.

For these acts of wickedness, we must be destroyed. Trump was right. He wasn't the enemy; we are. They're coming after us.
