[basquebromance]

For this to happen you have to have integrity a moral compass and a conscience something republicans lack

What evidence did the media provide to the effect that conservatives, broadly writ, had espoused the Great Replacement Theory? They cited the belief among conservatives that the Left is generally friendly toward loose immigration in order to move the country in a progressive manner. Philip Bump of The Washington Post stated that nearly half of Republicans believed in the great replacement theory, citing a Pew poll that found that almost half of Republicans (and more than one in five Democrats) believed that "there is a group of people in this country who are trying to replace native-born Americans with immigrants who agree with their political views."






This, of course, is not the great replacement theory, which centers on racial purity rather than the idea that changing demographics have an effect on political orientation. The latter premise has been taken for granted by the Left for decades (even though it is largely faulty, as changing Hispanic voting patterns demonstrate). In fact, the Left has often argued in favor of demographic change turning the country bluer: in 2003, John Judis and Ruy Teixeira wrote a book titled "The Emerging Democratic Majority," in which they argued that Democrats were building a new electoral coalition "in which white America is supplanted by multiracial, multiethnic America;" in 2012, Greg Sargent of The Washington Post observed, "The story of this election will be all about demographics...rather than reverting to the older, whiter, more male version [of America's electorate] Republicans had hoped for, it continues to be defined by what Ron Brownstein has called the 'coalition of the ascendant' — minorities, young voters, and college educated whites, particularly women"; in 2013, the Center for American Progress stated, "Supporting real immigration reform that contains a pathway to citizenship for our nation's 11 million undocumented immigrants is the only way to maintain electoral strength in the future."

It's a good valid article and quite sad that this is happening.

I do need to note, if one looks at politicians like Hillary Clinton, the lack of a moral compass and conscience does not just belong to the Republican party.

I am an advocate of annexxing Mexico. Now you are all Americans, stay home.
