The blue wall is 235-ish EV due to 2020 census changes. DeSantis needs to win Arizona, Georgia and Pennsylvania or he has no chance.

      and latinos. and a minority of blacks and asians. That forms a plurality.

      crazy conservative people are not defined by race.

      lots of immigrants voted for Trump because the funny thing about immigrants is that they HATE new/future immigrants.

      a lot liberal smart white people need to get their heads out of their asses about the political reality and stop making stupid assumptions about other groups.

        Getting smart, liberal, white people to pull their heads out of their asses and come down from their egos is just about as impossible as getting dumb, conservative, rednecks from not voting against their interests.

        Let’s be clear that crazy conservatives are overwhelmingly white. While there are people of color in that group, they represent small portions of their communities.

        Yeah, some of the most anti-immigrant people I’ve ever met were themselves immigrants. It’s the classic “pull the ladder up behind you” phenomenon and it’s not exclusive to rich humans.

        Funny enough, if the GOP could just stop being so goddamn racist, they’d win every election in the white house and congress for the rest of all time. The only real thing uniting the various democratic groups is the racism of Republicans.

        Black voters don’t like the fact that gay or trans people exist.

        Latinos don’t like social welfare programs.

        Asians don’t like equity programs.

        College educated whites don’t like seeing any of the previous 3 groups in their neighborhood, bringing down property values.

        Young people don’t like voting.

        There’s really not a lot of common values bringing these groups together. Except the general “let’s not be racist assholes, at least openly in public” thing.
