Soon the producers will tire of supporting the blue city voters.

I've seen this on FR for 18 years and 2 accounts (I lost access to my other one)....I'll believe this statement when I see it and not before. Much much easier to get on Facebook or Twitter or FR or whatever and whine about it rather than do anything tangible.

The last election was stolen using 507 counties

Not wise to be too honest.

Politics has come to supplant religion. The Dem voters in PA don’t care how disabled their candidate is, since all the candidate has to do is to sign on to the religious creed. No independence of thought is allowed, and therefore candidate ability does not matter.

Again, I'll believe it when I see it. No one is going to do anything. "Producer" states might get tired of producing for the blue states that produce nothing. Doesn't matter. Life is far too easy still, despite the blue state/red state divide.

It's all hot air in an echo chamber.

I think we should ridicule Pennsylvania into a four-year time out before they can vote again. I mean, you “elected” Biden in 2020 and Fetterman in 2022, meaning Pennsylvanians are not qualified to vote for an important federal office. Somebody needs to start a referendum while other lead a BOYCOTT PA effort. Hollywood isn’t the only people who can boycott.

I’d amend that to say “stolen by 8 cities in 8 states.”

Leftists can’t stand to see a free, happy, prosperous society on the other side of the fence. They have to destroy it - it’s their nature.

All this means is that THE STEAL is entrenched and stronger where it was allowed to stand in 2020. Californication is affecting more than the effected states. A trashing of the republic which we can not stand.

" The movement of Latinos to the GOP is potentially decisive at the national level."

The problem is, that is second-generation. The unmarried putas with petito migras flooding AZ and grazing on gringo largesse is going to make that state very difficult to win back in 2024, unless you simply roll back all the rules there that allow them to vote.

The far more salient scenario is flipping Virginia back into red, which narrows Democrat electoral win scenarios like you can't believe.

VA and NC. NC is rapidly turning blue with all the Yankees moving there.

“Most modern blue cites don’t produce anything tangible. It is all paper. Soon the producers will tire of supporting the blue city voters.”

Facebook/Meta, Google, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube -
all have competition and none of them need to be in any particular state. Not life threatening if they dissolve in thin air.
Not so farms and factories and people who make things.
Those who live in virtual glass houses . . .

“ If certain trends continue, we will soon see a seismic shift in political alignment.”

Unfortunately, every man, woman, and child alive or a century dead could in the future be a republican, and as long as democrats are in charge of the machines and the election rules, then only “republicans” approved by democrats will be allowed to win to give the illusion of fairness.

Let’s kick them out like we did to the Tories in 1783. I don’t want to give up beautiful states that we built like California and New York.

16 states are already likely Democrat wins. They may pick up more and may lose one or two of those, but either way it’s more than eight states, and they have a lot of electoral votes. It’s not the same country it was in the Eighties. The last election proved that. NY, CA, IL, WA are as likely to go for the Democrats as HI, MD, VT, MA, and RI.
