For the past 4 years GOP and heritage foundation has been playing chess.
Theyve been destroying branding of things like Black Lives Matter, what DEI is, Critical race theory is, etc Just stoking the anger of the January 6th rebellion loss and using it to get him reelected.
This win was revenge.
I said the passed 4 years but really this rhetoric started when they began talking about low birth rates among white people being below replacement levels. That has been narrative for the passed 8-10 years, so there is your reason for the attack on women's reproductive rights.
White people have been told they were losing the cultural war when it came to issues like BLM, Colin Kaepernick Kneeling in the NFL and other diversity issues. So there is your anger for DEI.
Top it all off with the immigration issue concerns. All things considered, this stirred the pot for fear and cultural resentment that helped MAGA supporters cling to Donald Trump even closer because he was the mouth piece for white supremacist ideologies that had boldly appeared in politics.
Voting for Trump was a vote not to be replaced by minorities. If I recall the stat projections had white people becoming a minority by 2050. So the hope is he will implement his plans in a way that will prevent this from happening.
He had no real policy, or tax plan that benefited Americans, no true foreign policy etc etc
They were voting to sustain the status quo period lol
