Their America Is Vanishing. Like Trump, They Insist They Were Cheated.

A shrinking white share of the population is a hallmark of the congressional districts held by the House Republicans who voted to challenge Trump’s defeat, a New York Times analysis found — a pattern political scientists say shows how white fear of losing status shaped the movement to keep him in power.

The portion of white residents dropped about 35% more over the past three decades in those districts than in territory represented by other Republicans, the analysis found, and constituents also lagged behind in income and education. Rates of so-called deaths of despair, such as suicide, drug overdose and alcohol-related liver failure, were notably higher as well.


“A lot of white Americans who are really threatened are willing to reject democratic norms,” she said, “because they see it as a way to protect their status.”

That may help explain why the dispute over Trump’s defeat has emerged at this moment in history, with economic inequality reaching new heights and the white population of the United States expected within about two decades to lose its majority.

To be fair, every older generation seems to think that way, I recall learning the theme of the 1920’s was “return to normalcy,” and definitely segments of the older population felt their America was slipping away in the 1960’s. Suppose the belief in the “replacement theory” could also fall here, although, the Trump/Murdoch pimping it for political/personal gain amplifies it’s message

Okay, let's assume for argument that you are correct. What will replace it? A nation more like California, New York, or Illinois?

Gloat if you want, but it seems to me what you, and the two authors of that vapid piece of dreck in the NYT, are doing is nothing less. You have no idea what's coming afterwards or whether it'll be somehow better. Instead, you and they, appear to have the position of a six-year-old that doesn't grasp the potential consequences of their actions.

"famous podcaster is shut down. or putting journalists in jail," if you are referring here to Jones and Bannon, ah, you need to get out more, a lot more, and quickly

The rest of the country could only hope to aspire to California and New York, between them they contributed close to 25% of America's total GDP

So I was right, it was Bannon and Jones, one who has already been convicted of swindling his own followers out of money and the other about to lose billions due to false accusations, and I have "no idea?"

Ah, should I remind you again, you are talking about Bannon and Jones, neither which even remotely has anything to do with Obama

And as far as Obama, "journalists say the White House curbs routine disclosure of information and deploys its own media to evade scrutiny by the press," which no matter how you put it doesn't measure up to "waging war on journalists," besides, has there been a journalist yet who ever said of any President that the White House full cooperates with our requests?

As I recommended, you got to get out more

Don Demel, a 61-year-old salesman who turned out last month to pick up a signed copy of a book by Nehls about the supposedly stolen election, said his parents had raised him “colorblind.” But the reason for the discontent was clear: Other white people in Fort Bend “did not like certain people coming here,” he said. “It’s race. They are old-school.”

the dispute came when 5 states stopped or prolonged their votes counts, one even lying about a water main break

And, their contribution is declining not rising...
