GOP = Party of the Working Class |
2023-04-03 |
[NYPOST] “In a strict quantitative sense,” marvels the Liberal Patriot’s Ruy Teixeira, Republicans are now “the party of the American working class. That is, they currently get more working-class (noncollege) votes than the Democrats.” In 2022, the GOP “carried the nationwide working-class House vote by 13 points”; in 2020, Donald Trump carried it by 4 points over Joe Biden. And “Democrats’ hold on the nonwhite working class has also been slipping.” Plus, on race, “Trump voters were, on average, more tolerant and understanding than voters for prior Republican candidates.” Dems, don’t be “blasé about” the ongoing shift: If Republicans pick up another 5 points among these voters from 2020 to ’24, it “produces a solid 312-226 GOP electoral vote majority” and an Electoral College lock through 2040. |

#1 It might be better to change “working class” to “productive class.” This welds entrepreneurial folks with the people that make stuff. Engineers are educated and productive. Women’s Studies teachers are educated but not productive. |
