Donald Trump's populist vibe seems to take care of that by unifying those who support him in the crusade against Mexicans and Muslims. However, it seems to not be working, and it's only dividing us.It's dividing us on on the view point of whether we view ourselves as Americans, or global citizens subject the authority of so-called world or global powers and interests that be so to speak. In my opinion, Trump is just scratching the surface of the anger at this point and the more global minded progressive better become more aware of the internal discontentment that Trump now represents in a much smaller form than what it will become eventually. Right now, we have liberals playing their petty games with peoples minds like they do consistently. On the other side, you have a much more serious constituency who has had enough of the liberal games and their more global minded policies and minority driven policies. Right now, the Rhinos are the ones experiencing the heat of that more serious constituency. It is very clear the bulk of of the Republican base is ready to move on without the support of the Rhinos who were defeated. The jig is up at this point. I know the working class better than any liberal who posts here, The bulk of the liberals who post here live in a bubble with no connection working or relationship to the class who once placed them in power. So, in reality you're f-d, whether you f-d today or tomorrow doesn't matter much to me at this point.
The Bernie Sanders wing is just as large as the Trump wing, going by primary vote totals. Workers won't need to follow Trump, who represents the oligarchy and fires workers, when they have a champion like Bernie available who will make sure that globalism is fair and does not hurt workers, the economy or the environment.
As for "minority-driven policies," you make phrases like that, and then deny that you are racist. What if that dog-whistle, which you make into a siren, loses its appeal in an increasingly-diverse nation with younger generations that respect that diversity? What if the minorities become the majority?
Minorities will become the majority in the next few decades! More children are being born to non-white parents than any other time before us, and the birth rate has become lower among white parents. Because of this, the population of minorities has accelerated, and will soon become greater than the majority. As more children are racial minorities, today's children will become more accepting of racial diversity than any other generation, and will hopefully grow up under a time of unity and pluralism (which we should have during the 4T and ironically we are more divisive than before), not only among races and ethniticies, but also in investing in a common future. I suggest that the new generation of Adaptives should be called the "Pluralist Generation," or "Plurals" for short. I didn't make that name up, but I really like it.
This is one of the reasons that the Right is so obsessed with banning abortion, there is a lot of White Supremacist "whites are committing race-suicide" sentiments on the Right.
