So, how are they doing with the silent majority who have been watching as cops are being heavily criticized and labelled as racists, Democratic cities are being over run, Democratic punks/idiots are destroying public/private property that they view as racist and so forth. I will be delighted when you can no longer leach off us and you have to convince the urban liberals that your life matters just as much as the blacks lives that they mainly serve and seem to matter the most these days. You're going to find out that this isn't about race and it's really about class. You better start showing me common sense and you better start showing me class or your future in this country is going to be miserable.
Voters under 40 are about 20% more Democratic than Republican, and they are supplanting voters over 55 who die off and are about 5% more Republican than Democratic. Figuring that the voting career of most people is about sixty years, that means that on the average about 1.6% of the electorate dies off each year, predominately in the 55+ group.
Trump has done little to attract newer, younger voters.
...I will be particularly delighted if Minnesota puts Trump effectively into the "He Can't Win" zone of 192 electoral votes before 11 PM on Election Night just to spite you.
I'd say the Democratic party pretty much has a lock on the immature and the clueless/ naive voters these days. Did you know that Minnesota has a lot of ex-Michigan's who seen the writing on the wall pertaining to no future for them and moved here because of all the opportunities that exist here. The Democrats didn't cling to the old system like the Democrats did in your state. The Democrats gave way and embraced Reaganomics (pro growth) and transitioned the state to high tech and eliminated big government barriers pertaining to access to quality education. Do we want to be as fucked up as Michigan/Detroit? Gee, what I'd expect to see in either Detroit or Chicago or Baltimore or some other big city occurred in our little cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. Wow. What a shock? Would have been a bigger shock had it spread to our area (gun country) where the people are more heavily armed because we can afford to be professionally trained and heavily armed. Personally, I think you can pretty much write off Minnesota as a win myself. But, you're the so called expert so I'll just go a long and grant you the stage for now.
Did you know that seven counties were forced to live under curfews and go without their stores while a bunch of idiots were going nuts and destroying a bunch of stuff and fucking up lives of people who nothing to do with what took place with George Floyd and a group of Minneapolis cops and the repercussions of a dickhead blue mayor blurting out without thinking of all those repercussions because it was all about him and his political views at the moment. Personally, I would have clocked the dumb mother fucker but I wasn't there to do it. I hate your privileged fucks as much as the minorities hate them. BTW, we both know that you aren't one of them even though you tried and probably dreamed of being like them. Me, I've met them at social gatherings and I didn't like them and wanted nothing to do with them.
So, you'd rather have a senile old man doing whatever the liberals want, the world wants and doing whatever he's told by them to do during a crucial time as your president. Me, I'd prefer to keep Trump despite his personal shortcomings personality wise. The dude is an asshole but at least he's not going to screw the entire country.
