Winning the popular vote with legal citizens and winning the popular vote with illegals are two totally different things.

Plus factor in voter fraud.

The salad components don’t really have a will, so the salad isn’t entirely an applicable analogy.

So what is one? Maybe I don’t know, personally.

... but whatever happens will probably depend on the willingness of the “salad components” to unite when juxtaposed by circumstance.

Full self segregation, while legally permissible, is probably socially unhealthy. The trick is to emphasize policies that encourage (but not force) self segregation to minimize if not disappear.

gays, Muslims, feminists, blacks, Latinos, and an array of other groups

And make no mistake - these groups have common enemies.

If you are a Christian, you are an enemy.

If you are a Jew, you are an enemy.

If you are a veteran, you are an enemy.

If you are White, you are an enemy.

If you are heterosexual, you are an enemy.

If you are a patriot, you are an enemy.

If you believe in the Constitution, you are an enemy.

If you are a father, you are an enemy.

If you refuse to abort a child, you are an enemy.

The End Of Identity Politics

If our nation is to survive this has to happen but as long as we have political groups like Black & Hispanic caucuses it won't.

She succeeded, as did Obama, in winning the popular vote by appealing directly to the unique identities of gays, Muslims, feminists, blacks, Latinos, and an array of other groups...

The most important "other group" being the illegal alien, dead, and multiple voters that put her over the top.

If President Trump accomplishes nothing more than to clean out fraud from the voting system, his presidency will be a resounding success.

I love President Trump. He voices the frustration many of us have had with the lying duplicitous media for decades. He sees the voter fraud and tackles it--unlike every other Republican, ever, who ignores vote fraud if it wasn't enough to prevent his election. MAGA!!!

Personally, I think identity politics are going to get a lot worse before they get better. The Democrats are going harder Left, which means more identity politics from their side. I really doubt they will give it up as it has hijacked their Party. Much like Labor in the UK, more election loses will only thin out the dissenting voices.

Excellent article, again, by VDH. A real gem.

This excerpt was something I think I felt at some level, but had never consciously formed into a discrete statement as VDH did in his article:

"...The culture’s obsession with tribalism and special ethnic interests—often couched in terms of opposing “white privilege”—had alienated millions of less well-off white voters. Quietly, many thought that if ethnic activists were right that the white majority was shrinking into irrelevance, and if it was acceptable for everyone to seek solidarity through their tribal affiliations, then poor whites could also rally under the banner of their own identity politics. If such trends were to continue in a nation that is still 70 percent white, it would prove disastrous for the Democratic Party in a way never envisioned during the era of Barack Obama..."

It never occurred to me to view it quite that way, but what is good for the goose is also good for the gander.

Good article exposing more Americans to what is going on...divide and govern. End to it? Doubtful. No shortage of criminals/collectives, especially aggrieved.

BUMP!

The Dems rode a 25-year wave by promising each disaffected group that they’d be #1 in the grievance pecking order.

Eventually they all came to collect.
But the show was oversold by 400%.

Hanson is wrong big time.

Identity politics are here to stay and will become MUCH more powerful in the years to come.

It's gonna be a mess.
