Actually lol, the DNC is endangering of making themselves relevant.
Hint: political relevance means steering back the middle. For years now—ever since Obama’s first term, I’ve been harping on the Democrats leftward lurch. And for reasons I’m unsure of, Democrats dropped the clutch and hit the gas after 2016.
Trump HAS changed the GOP though, but NOT in terms of ideology. How long have republicans been clamoring for conservative justices? How many has Trump appointed? Cutting regulations and freeing up the economy? Sounds like something Reagan would do. Finally, finally, we have a Republican President who is serious about the border and immigration. If only someone would work with him on it.
What Trump changed [hopefully] is he gave the GOP a set of gonads.
Coup has started. First of many steps. Impeachment will follow ultimately~WB attorney Mark Zaid, January 2017

Yes, but you pretend Christians are under attack. You pretend there is a "War on Christmas." Republican identity politics mostly consist of painting Christians out as victims that need to vote Republican to fight back.
And you paint the Left out as being Anti-American. That's identity politics, just like when someone claims Trump is Anti-Mexican.We are "Americans."
And you lie about your opponents being Communists and foreigners.We do oppose Communism but not "legal" foreigners.
So there you go, four examples of GOP identity politics.
