Is the GOP worried about its survival?

Interesting tack, OP. You’re clearly a Republican but wanted to start a fight.

Lol. Southern Texas.

Democrats should think long and hard before they rely on the "demography is destiny" strategy. Between 2016 to 2020 Trump improved his standing with every single demographic group except for white men.


This makes absolutely no sense, because Trump already had the white men.

The US is mostly white, married, and straight. Just because there are more that are not, there will never be a majority --- Latinos will join the GOP at roughlyt the same percentage as whites so I am not too concerned.

You are living in a fantasy land. Last election would have been a republican landslide except for the idiot Trump -- same with the election before.

Long term is looking good.

The question should be asked about democrats though. Progressive wing likely to break off from the party.


There is no "but for" Trump - Trump is the Republican party.

I think part of the problem Republicans are having right now is that they are still thinking in terms like that - "oh, if it weren't for Trump, blah blah blah." He is your party. And Dems are patently not the lunatics you keep trying to insist we are. Biden, for pete's sake, is president. Jeffries leads Ds in the House. These are not radicals who are out doing nutso things on social media or in real life.

Thank you for this clarification. I never will saw it that way.

Some may ask, what about those straight, white Christian men over 50? Those men need to feel like they can return "home" to a more sane and rational and moderate space, which for now is only the Democratic party. Unfortunately, the Democratic party makes people pick a team, and they practically force that demographic of men away. How? Well, by placing blame for centuries of history at their feet, when they themselves may never had any power of authority over anyone.


OMG, STFU

Will you idiots quit your whining about being taught....history?

No one is telling you this is your fault. By learning our history, we can take lessons from it and actually make changes to make this country a more equal and free place for ALL

But, oh, no - it hurts the old white male fee fees.

Please understand that in many cases it goes beyond history lessons and seems more like payback. Payback for men that didn’t do anything wrong.

Because you are morons who can't get past your own biases.

I'm so tired of having to explain these things to people I am lumped in with due to my own lack of melanin.

Stop being such gotdam crybabies. This country has an ugly history of racial injustice. We STILL have problems. Stop with your complex and get off your butss and help fix it.

The GOP is extremely worried about their dwindling numbers. Their voter base skews old and its members are dying off.

This is why they are doing so much education reform in many states. The GOP knows it cannot get most of the educated young populous to join its ranks.

If they change what kids can learn and how they can learn that information, the GOP controls the narrative.

The GOP likes to toss around the term woke but what they really mean is educated. They aren't scared of a woke society. They are scared of an educated. Society is more educated than ever before and the masses are no longer dumb enough to fall for their tricks and talking points.

When I was in HS in VA, THE clubs to be part of were the Young Christians Club and the Young Republicans Club. Both had so many student members that they had to meet in the auditorium and lunch rooms, respectively. Their club photos in the yearbook took up full pages to two full pages some years. The Young Democrats club had maybe 3 dozen students and met in a normal classroom and had a small block in the yearbook.

Now, at the high school my teens attend, the PRISM GSA club has the most members and the second largest club is the Young Democrats. There are only a few handfuls of students in the Young Republicans club and maybe a dozen or so in the Christianity Club.

He had a lower percentage of white men in 2020 than 2016. His percentage improved from 2016 to 2020 with every other demographic.

Hispanics are flocking to the GOP in droves. The single greatest political backfire in US history will be the Democrats kowtowing to the demands of unfettered illegal immigration from the south. They're letting in millions of people who are very, verrrrry Catholic, with strong patriarchal cultures, and whom often start small businesses and hate taxes. Dems are driving Hispanics to the GOP en masse.

Liberals have been saying the GOP would go extinct since about the 1950s. People just get more conservative the older they get once they have homes, have families, and have decent jobs. Story as old as time.

This. The Rio Grande Valley was supposed to predict the future of Texas as the Hispanic vote grew, now the Hispanic vote there is deep red. It seems strange to rely on votes from a group that is very opposed to a large portion of your platform, but I guess that's the plan

The birthrate is lower than ever, 50% of 18-45 yr olds live at home and millennials own a fraction of the wealth that boomers did at the same age.
