GOP lawmaker: If the party doesn't adapt to new demographics 'there won't be a Republican Party'

Yeah, they’re all missing the KEY demographic: which is that America is getting older.
And wiser?
I think so: we’ll see.

Virginia on Tuesday will prove this guy wrong. I hope!!!!!!

I think democrats need to worry more about what they look like than republicans do.

When Republicans treat people of minority groups equally, they get support from them, except for the few professional agitators and complainers.

Those who are successful appreciate the Republicans.

Individuals become Republicans, self segregated groups support the Democrats.

He is saying that non whites are pro big government. That is racist and wrong. Why are latino men risking so much to come to America ? Because they can legally own a gun here you dolt. Beto just got run out of the Dimwit race because he wanted government to own all the serious hand guns.

Not this s#it again!

"Republicans should have principals that they don’t just abandon should the political winds shift a different direction. That’s what Democrats already do."

True. Also, rehabilitation processes (detoxification, etc.) and other conclusions of human errors and consequences help to change the minds of some, and to help them see the world around them in a more realistic light. Many more people are working jobs and learning new lessons.

Just ask the NFL and NASCAR how adapting to new demographics by abandoning their base is working out for them.

If the author doesn’t think the GOP is paying attention to changing demographics, then Owen is not paying attention.

Low Black unemployment rate
Low Latino unemployment rate
Low Asian unemployment rate
And higher wages for the above three categories, along with records breaking in each of the above.

President Trump is, indeed, paying attention.

Round them up the illegals and boot them out of the country, William Turd.

[DannyTN]

Some of the trends are horrible.
I wouldn’t want to be part of any party that adapted to certain trends.

We don’t need to be followers, we need to be leaders.
And that doesn’t mean finding out where people are headed and getting out in front of them.

[PghBaldy]

Wasn’t Trump a Democrat then?

[TheNext]

Immigrate whites only for awhile.

Too many hardcore socialists are getting in.

The top photo. The one on the far right in the bow tie . . . . Is that Maxine Waters?

[jmacusa]

Ronald Reagan said the GOP can not be all things to all people. We have to stay true to our core values.

[Freedom56v2]

Ex-CIA (If there ever is EX...) Rep seems to have become anti-Trump....Big surprise...NOT

Hmmm... all they need to do is embrace conservatism and they'll get a rainbow of diversity.

But the RINOs are stuck in the same mindset as the KKK democrats.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

The irony of coarse is that Trump is one of the few Republicans politicians who actually does try to make out reach with minority voters

[jmaroneps37]

Hurd is working on being a Steele lite.

I left the Republican Party about 10 years ago. I’m a registered Whig.
