Why blue-collar workers are going red.
2021-03-06
[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%.

#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.

#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?

#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.

#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.
