Nevada News & Views: December 11, 2024

(Chuck Muth) – There’s something happening here. And what it is, is pretty clear…

The Trump Realignment.  Some examples…

Democrats in Nevada now only outnumber Republicans by 5,875 voters. (Jessica Hill)

At the close of registration in October 2016 – before Donald Trump was elected the first time – the Democrat advantage was 88,818.

And it’s not just happening in Nevada.  Unleash Prosperity notes that Republicans continue to gain ground with minorities all across the country. 

It cites Saturday’s mayoral race in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where “Republican Sid Edwards – despite being outspent six-fold by the Democrats – won 54% of the vote to defeat a two-term Democratic incumbent.”

The district “is only 42% white and hasn’t voted Republican for president in over 20 years.”

Meanwhile, this week Florida Rep. Susan Valdes switched from D to R, stating she was “tired of being the party of protesting.” (Benny Johnson)  And in Texas, Judge Tano Tijerina also made the switch today.

In a FOX interview he said the D’s have gone too far to the left on issues such as border security and allowing boys in girls’ sports.

We haven’t seen a realignment like this since the mid-1990s when “southern Democrats” fled the plantation in droves.  America has been “red-pilled.”

And will be better off for it.
