Women, educated, and minorities are the working class these days.

But I agree, Trump can have the America-haters and welcome to them.

There's always room for good people in the party that is working to make things better for Americans.

The only areas gaining population in PA. are democratic strongholds and the rest are loosing population? Philadelphia is finally gaining population after 40 years of loosing it, and Pittsburg is gaining population.

Sounds like liberals.

Yes, Bell I understand that you don't think PA will flip. Most people on the subject disagree with you though. It's ripe for the taking.

They don't have to. The country is becoming more educated and diverse. The GOP will benefit from that for a dozen or so more years, but after that they are going to have difficulty in elections.

Actually according to this site, around 65.3% of Pennsylvania's population (I calculated that myself based on the map) lives in counties that are trending to the right since 2008. Although the fastest growing counties are the trending-blue counties, it's still an interesting phenomenon nonetheless.
