    Default Data shows a downward demographic spiral for Republicans

    Here’s where this demographic math gets interesting. One of the single largest segments within the white voter demographic are white evangelical voters. White evangelicals made up close to 37 percent of all white voters at the polls in November and a striking 26 percent of total voters.

    This is particularly compelling, because recent studies have shown that white evangelicals (and even white protestants more broadly) are generally decreasing as a percent of the U.S. population each election cycle (largely driven by the fact that younger generations are less religious, or at least less strident in their religion than older generations).

    “If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”

    — Golda Meir

    Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.


    “If Hamas put down their weapons, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons, there would be no Israel."

    I see you're still dancing on the graves of white people.

    There are two different types of Repubs. The Ryan, McConnel, McCain, Flake type rhinos, and then the pro Trump Repubs The rhino establishment type is dying off, and the righty type is taking charge.

    These were the 2015-2016 talking points too. A dead party sure did muster up one hell of a revival.

    BTW, membership in both parties is declining and has been for a while. The ranks of "independents" are growing.

    Urged on by their leaders, 81 percent of white evangelicals voted for Trump—more than voted for George W. Bush, an actual evangelical—and now everyone is laughing at them.

    People? The only 'white' people, I've ever seen were dead, not just brain dead.
