Yet another one of his major promises he has failed on. How long will it take the uneducated (but he loves them!) in fly-over country to realize that they have been scammed worse than when Jethro sold them the 1998 Chevy that was really a 1983 Ford?

So, when cheeto made all of those promises, he was ignorant to how government worked and had no clue what he was promising?

 

[GK4Herd]

I think Trump confused the presidency with a monarchy.

 

[Y.A.G Si Ye Nots]

It is what I posted a year ago. Cheeto's promises amounted to the 7th grader's speech while running for student council president. He promised the students an extra 30 minutes at recess each day, banning homework, twice as many school dances, and chicken nuggets at lunch every day.

The special ed students and those in remedial classes ate it up and pulled the lever for the kid.

How could the Republican party not have had some alternative plan in place for Obamacare? At the very least, you've had since November to put something together. Instead, they draft a half-ass bill in the same manner the underlying legislation was pushed through - with no real idea what's in it or what the consequences would be. This was a disaster.

Republican Congress, like the liberal elite morons, were expecting a Hillary landslide.

 

[Walden Pond]

The most important pieces of his presidency are still intact. Halting progressive pride and all the garbage that goes along with it simply by beating the old hag. And the Democrats better be grooming their next Donovan McNabb or they're gonna be right back in the same boat next time.

Trump won't deliver on a lot of this stuff, just like an old white Democrat won't deliver the ACORN vote.

Seven fvcking years. The problem with the GOP is the "Freedom Caucus" holds them hostage, they let them take the party hostage by not repudiating dingbats wanting to push ever further to the right, which was mostly a response to having a colored man as POTUS.

If I am Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, I go to the Democrats, find some common ground, and tell those dingbats to go screw. Call their bluff. Their entire shtick is up with a silver-spoon white man in the Presidency. Trump doesn't give a fvck, he will sign anything just to say he got rid of Obamacare...this is, after all, the man who just a few short years ago supported single-payer, he doesn't give a shit personally about health care from a political ideological standpoint, if he had ran as a Democrat he would have been for single-payer to end Obamacare.

You have a problem in your party when it's divided between those who want to harm their constituents and those who want to harm them even more. On top of that you have a party that has at it's top a lack of leadership and zero experience to go along with it's depraved agenda.

Oh, this should be almost as good as when you comically butchered your argument comparing the DC beltway with the beltway in the Raleigh area.

The fly over states are usually considered those states with little national interest off of the coasts. Those states are primarily the midwest/great plains/northern & southern states with low populations. So, lets see how the fly over states have voted over the past 60 years:

1960: voted mostly Republican for Nixon
1964: overwhelmingly Democrat for Johnson
1968: overwhelmingly Republican for Nixon
1972: overwhelmingly Republican for Nixon
1976: voted mostly Republican for Ford
1980: overwhelmingly Republican for Reagan
1984: overwhelmingly Republican for Reagan
1988: overwhelmingly Republican for Bush
1992: very slightly more Democrat for Clinton
1996: very slightly more Republican for Dole
2000: overwhelmingly Republican for Bush
2004: overwhelmingly Republican for Bush
2008: Republican for McCain
2012: overwhelmingly Republican for Romney
2016: overwhelmingly Republican for Trump

The fly over states, by far, have voted Republican over the last 60 years.

Nice try. My initial comment was not strictly based on the premise of "fly over" land. More directly related to your "uneducated voter" assertion. Of course Repubs have owned flyover country. The "red maps" are the usual. However, unless Dems have been lying for years, the poor uneducated "working man" has generally lined up behind their platform.

In that case, "uneducated voter in fly over states" would be pretty redundant considering those states are overwhelmingly uneducated. Look at the percentage of states' adult populations with college degrees. The lowest states are red. The highest states are blue. Those red states consist of almost all of the fly over states.

So, again, the uneducated in fly over country haven't supported the Dems in a long time unless that particular segment just decides not to show up at the polls.

Maybe redundant for those that don't have a broader understanding of the historical electorate make up or for those just trying to mock one group over another. Again, the Dems must have been lying over the years, because they used to champion the fact the uneducated trusted them to get what they needed.

When Pew sliced the electorate into different demographic groups, they found that white men and white people without a college degree have made a remarkable recent swing from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party.

Nope cause they would rather buy the newest iPhone and newest Xbox (just using Chavetz words when speaking about the trump healthcare bill).

When you can lease to retirees who pay on time, are thoughtful neighbors of each other, and make the place look great there is no decision to be made.

Is this your best attempt or do you want me to give you another one?

Where to begin . . .

First, your quote simply looks at one race (white) and throughout the nation as a whole. It does nothing to refute what I claimed (all races of uneducated AND in the fly-over states). But, we will let that one slide for you, so you don't look too dumb.

This is the best part: your own source claims this is a "decade long sorting into different parties." Further, it also went back 24+ years, which proves my point. This switch of fly over deplorables isn't just a recent phenomenon- your own source said that. It mentions that this switch of uneducated whites has been going on decades before cheeto. It has been going on for decades, hence, "the uneducated in fly-over country haven't supported the Dems in a long time."

You're arguing against my statement by providing a source which says exactly what I did. That isn't a very good strategy.

Of course it looks at one race. Do you really need a study telling you that historically "uneducated blacks" vote Dem? LOL.

You see, "24 Years" really isn't a "long time" in political years. Thus the reason the article was discussing this as some new phenomena. Here, again...you better take it up with NPR. They are the left's puppet news agency.

remarkable recent swing from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party.

Which reinforces my original comment of "...50-60 years...before realizing..."

For decades the Dems cherished these "uneducated" folks. So much so they paid them to show up and vote (unions). Promised them they would always be taken care of. Guaranteed them fairness and job security. I know this....I was raised with the Dem brainwashing of "Dems cares for (insert every sad sack group here)". Of course it's all BS. Across the board. I personally pity anyone who puts their full faith and hope in a politician. Repub. or Dem. Its a waste of emotion.

 

[Y.A.G Si Ye Nots]

You conveniently left off the part about it looking at the nation instead of the fly-over states. That's just a teeny-tiny difference, eh?

The modern day Republican party only switched their platform and went from being for big government to small government in the early 20th century. 25 years is about 25% of the modern Republican party's history, so it is a "long time" that this has taken place.

But, don't take my word for it. Take your own source's:

"This decades-long sorting into different parties — more-educated people into the Democratic Party and less-educated people into the GOP, for example — may reflect that American voters have changed how often they vote across party lines."

 

[raleighherdfan]

Of course I did. When discussing the electorate makeup of national elections, why would you not want to have a full context of the demographics that make up those parties historically nationwide?

I'll assume you are still referring to the "uneducated", during the remaining ~75% of the time that I was referencing with my initial comment. "50-60 years.... before realizing....."

"This decades-long sorting into different parties — more-educated people into the Democratic Party and less-educated people into the GOP, for example — may reflect that American voters have changed how often they vote across party lines

This comment from the article actually supports my position. Dems have essentially until recently been the party of the uneducated. And I have no doubt, had Hillary or Bernie not been so incompetent in losing to a political neophyte, they would have been celebrating all those uneducated voters that would have brought them home instead of mocking them now.

 

[Y.A.G Si Ye Nots]

Of course I did. When discussing the electorate makeup of national elections, why would you not want to have a full context of the demographics that make up those parties historically nationwide?

Do I really have to explain this to you?

Why would I not want to? Because that wasn't the fvcking comment I made that you contested.

Lets review:
- I make a comment
- You contest that comment
- You attempt to offer proof to support your contesting
- I call out your attempt at proof at being much different than what it was you were contesting of mine
- You think we should change the topic about what it was you contested

Christ.

This comment from the article actually supports my position. Dems have essentially until recently been the party of the uneducated.

No, it doesn't. It shows that it has been "a few decades." "A few decades" isn't "recently" when you look at the context that the Republican party's platform is only about 110 years old. "Decades" is a significant part of 110.

 

[raleighherdfan]

24 years is a significant part of 110 years?? Ha. Not according to most people, or to authors who make their point by saying "remarkable recent".

Again, you asked a question:" how long will it take for..."

And I answered: "....longer than the 50-60 years it took..."

I wasn't contesting anything. There isn't anything to contest within the context of my original answer. For about 50-60 years the Dem party owned all these "uneducated". It was their base voter. Based on this NPR article, it's Pew data and your unaccounted for 86 years....my original statement is accurately supported.
