The GOP Is Not a Majority Party
The GOP is a mainly white party and will become less relevant as current demographic trends make the US a more diverse country. Stephen Miller has been focused on stopping immigration and trying to slow down the process but the facts are clear https://politicalwire.com/2020/08/22/the-gop-is-not-a-majority-party/
Pretty much none of the nonpartisan analysts I know expect Trump to win the popular vote. Today, former Vice President Joe Biden leads the national polls by somewhere around 8 to 10 points nationally. A high number of Trumps paths to a second term revolve around him pulling off a win in the electoral college, while losing the popular vote, just as he did in 2016.
A loss by Trump this year would mean the Republicans have lost the popular vote 7 out of the last 8 elections since 1992.
Texas GOP has become the party of Q-ANON-We are the Storm
Allen West is an idiot and now the Texas GOP is using a Q-ANON slogan
https://twitter.com/PatrickSvitek/status/1297204792134176768
West, a former Florida congressman, indicated he drew inspiration for the slogan from an unattributed quote that he likes: "The devil whispers to the warrior slyly can it withstand the coming storm. The warrior responds, 'I am the storm.'" Others, however, saw something more nefarious: a dog whistle to the QAnon conspiracy movement the one that President Donald Trump notably declined to denounce Wednesday, saying he did not know much about it while also speaking favorably of its followers.....
The QAnon movement adheres to an unfounded theory that a mysterious government official named "Q" is exposing a plot against Trump by "deep-state" actors involving satanism and child sex trafficking. Some believers have been accused of plotting or carrying out violent crimes, including killing a New York mob boss. In April, an Illinois woman was arrested after she traveled to New York with illegal knives and wrote on Facebook that Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden need to be "taken out."....
The concept of "the storm" is a significant part of QAnon vernacular, said Mark Fenster, a law professor at the University of Florida who studies conspiracy theories....
"The Republican Party is being led by an internet cult that believes in dangerous, extreme far-right conspiracy theories," party spokesperson Abhi Rahman said in a statement. "West can try to deny its connection, but its there in plain sight for everybody to see.".
Kanye West's Campaign Unraveling
Jared is not boing to be happy https://politicalwire.com/2020/08/22/kanye-wests-campaign-unraveling/
West has filed in several other states in this week: Louisiana, Minnesota, Tennessee, and Virginia, but it is unclear if he will ultimately qualify to appear on the ballot in all of them. West may face particular issues in Virginia, where seven of the thirteen electors that West submitted told Intelligencer they were either unaware that they signed up to cast electoral votes on his behalf, or that they had signed notarized paperwork connected to the rappers presidential bid at all.
Trump Has Already Spent $1 Billion on His Re-Election
Brad Parscale and company have made a ton of money off this scam https://politicalwire.com/2020/08/21/trump-has-already-spent-1-billion-on-his-re-election/
Trump has raised and spent money for his reelection since 2017, earlier in his term than previous presidents. At this point in 2012, former president Barack Obamas reelection effort, including the Democratic National Committee, had spent about $643 million, federal records show.
