Young people are more liberal than ever thanks to indoctrination and programming.

More minorities may be conservative than before but it's still extremely small percentage of them.

No, people have not. What has happened is there are precious few solid right, Constitutional originalist, smaller, less intrusive, less expensive .gov real conservatives to vote for. So, many in the silent, conservative majority has no one to represent their views. The media would like everyone to think like they do. We do not.

Sample size of 1 and all, but I just saw it this week.

One of my wife's sisters is the definition of lefty moonbat. Woke supporter of every shitlib idea she's ever seen, major TDS since Trump ran in '16, and has never voted anything other than straight Democrat in any election.

She told us last weekend she's voting for Trump this year.

It all stemmed from the financial impacts of what's been going on the last 3 years. She recognized that her household was much better off financially under Trump and wished she could go back to that.

Once she realized how much better things were under Trump she started reading a lot and watching videos from sources that weren't her normal biased trash sites and realized she wasn't opposing "literally Hitler".

I don't think she'll do a completed 180 on her political beliefs, but I also don't think she'll be such a lemming going forward. She's been watching A LOT of Candace Owens videos this week and has had regular conversations with my wife about the things she's been learning.

Wasn't a realization I thought she would ever come to. The whole family, her husband included are in shock.

The economy and Biden encouraging illegal immigration are going to make a lot of people question what's best for their own situations.

Oxiden just had a campaign event.  After it he went into sniff mode on a pair of suspecting kids.

What Trump has to do is put a few more black faces in the background of his rallies like OXiden does.  It is little things like that that are noticed.

I think Trump can bead the sniffer, but if Big Mike jumps in, Trump will have to triple up or more to get elected.  Mike would be a major problem.

OP, I like your enthusiasm.  It is refreshing to see instead of all the doom normally posted.  That said, my honest assessment is that there will be no right wing resurgence because our demographics simply won’t allow it.  One of the major reasons the country has slid further left is the importation of millions of left leaning people.  I’m not just talking about the illegal aliens, but the legal aliens and naturalized citizens.  Those groups overwhelmingly vote left.  

Couple that with the trend of left wing voting among the youth, the left’s control of every institution of influence in our society, and the right’s inability to offer and implement real solutions to the US’s current issues.  You end up with situation where the right wing defines itself as that which is not left wing and serves as a relief valve for people’s discontent with the direction the country is headed.  The left wing will continue to shift the Overton window left with the right wing serving only to ease the shift.  Same as it ever was.

I might change my mind if I saw a large scale shift back to right wing principles like limited government, focus on the nuclear and extended family, belief in Judeo-Christian theology, self reliance, and civic duty.  I just don’t see it.  Many of those things are mocked and ridiculed by those in the right wing for cheap social media validation.  Look at the recent thread in GD about the Mormon family with 17 kids.  Many of the comments were split between, “Woo doggie, I’d stick my dick in her,” and “Woo doggie, I bet her vagina is loose.”  There was a perfect example of a Tradwife taking care of a self reliant large family (two things which should be applauded by those on the right), and the response from an ostensibly right wing forum is lecherous ridicule.  You can’t win when your own team undermines your core principles.

I believe in the theory of reflexivity in terms of politics. History would be a strong indicator to support that.

I went to a local gas station then the liquor store next door. At the gas station the attendant was listening to a Trump rally on his phone. When I mentioned something about it he went on a 10 minute tirade about Biden, Epstein, FBI and what not then told me to God bless as I left. At the liquor store the guy working there was probably 25 or so and mentioned how Biden has fucked up the economy when I mentioned how prices went up. He went on a similar 10 minute tirade and was surprisingly knowledgeable about all the bullshit that has been happening.

A woman showed up at the lobby at work to get some items that were found and somehow ended up on long diatribe about Biden and how shitty the world is now due to libs. I don't know if it will translate to anything at the polls but I have never seen people act like this in my life.

How did Trump fair when you elevate the stock market? I recall a huge drop around 2018? And is he really pro Second Amendment? Is he really pro First Amendment? I ask these questions because it seems almost like a cult following. I think he was a way better President than he was ever given credit for but he had horrible people around him and he seems to be behaving a lot like a reformed Hitler. I ask these questions because I truly want what is best for our country. If it comes down between Trump and Biden I will vote Trump but I dont think it will come to that. Trump is too close to losing everything and his followers are too high on the Trump Koolaid to be objective.

You really think anybody noticed anything different other than covid lockdowns and stimulus checks? And that somehow they attributed that properly to Trump?

Did welfare disappear while he was in office? Did the jobs minorities got suddenly disappear when Biden was elected? You think minorities are too stupid to connect all that emergency spending with the inflation that followed it?

This is fantasy.

I hope you're correct, but ime, they fall back in line by election day.
I agree with you there. However we are in uncharted territory where they had the chance to experience a level success and have it taken away.

Maybe I'm being optimistic, but my own experiences are showing a change in mindset in quite a few. Polls are showing it as well, enough that the left has acknowledged that they in fact have a problem and are losing large portions of the black and Hispanic vote.

Come Jan 25, radical leftists will own the WH, house, and senate.

I don't see Biden losing right now with the current economy.  The stock market is completely on fire lately, good job numbers, low gas prices, and our country is producing more oil than ever before.  Biden's foreign policy has been a disaster, but voters care about the home front.  They're also brining in enough migrants to turn texas blue eventually and then we'll never see another R president.  Elon Musk is actually dead on, we're being replaced by people who won't mind living in a socialist country.

These are not isolated instances, it's happening all over. I honestly feel like those who downplay it are either leftist plants trying to instill a defeatist attitude in their opposition or people who don't give a fuck and just want to watch the world burn.

I went to a local gas station then the liquor store next door. At the gas station the attendant was listening to a Trump rally on his phone. When I mentioned something about it he went on a 10 minute tirade about Biden, Epstein, FBI and what not then told me to God bless as I left. At the liquor store the guy working there was probably 25 or so and mentioned how Biden has fucked up the economy when I mentioned how prices went up. He went on a similar 10 minute tirade and was surprisingly knowledgeable about all the bullshit that has been happening.

A woman showed up at the lobby at work to get some items that were found and somehow ended up on long diatribe about Biden and how shitty the world is now due to libs. I don't know if it will translate to anything at the polls but I have never seen people act like this in my life.

I hope you are correct. It sure seems different.

If they were capable of that level of introspection they wouldn’t be in the situation they’re in. I’m not talking about individuals but the community as a whole.

Sigh..   we'd already have a right wing permanent majority of the GOP would drop first trimester abortion bans from the platform and treat weed like alcohol legally.

Those are big points, seems like the conservatives like to piss people off catering to the social conservative crowd.  Most normal people want legal weed and abortion is an absolute landmine of an issue to step on.
