Again....libertybele...the defeatism...!
In 2016, Trump was NOT expected to win. He did. And to assume that we will never see another GOP candidate as president is defeatist, and just wrong. The Dems offer nothing and there is no hope for GOP candidates?
Demographics may be changing, but studies also show that 2nd generation hispanics are overwhelmingly conservative with their vote. So, you should not despair.
As I indicated, I was raised in a staunch Democrat household. My mother was a radical unionist, and it was my father in the union. Until 2008, I was a registered Dem, yet I voted Republican in national elections. People do get more conservative as they get older. I used to vote for what I thought was the best candidate. No longer.
I will never vote for another Dem. Never. A large part of the Dems has gone communist and I believe we need to acknowledge that fact and no longer support this lost party. For me, the notion that the Dems allow Sanders to run as a Dem, when in fact he is a communist, completely destroys the branding of their party. Fact is they are lost and will remain so for the foreseeable future, and with this, the GOP has every opportunity to win every four years. They cannot run losers like McCain and Romney and expect to win however. They have to be smarter than that. Dole was another candidate destined to lose from Day One.
