Or Dems could adapt. They were the party of the working class most of my life, but seem to have gone to the party of the women, educated and minorities in this election. Biden has been talking about this, about how Dems need to find their roots again. We can leave the bigots and America-haters to the Trumplicans, but there are many, many good people in Trump's camp who need a new home.
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.

They will eventually flip. In the future the Republicans will hold the center part of the country along with PA and OH. The Dems will hold the west,southwest, and the east. You see the issue there though? They are relying on an older shrinking electorate. They have to adapt and modernize or they die.
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.

Hopefully most of the "early voters" realized Hillary Weiner was trying to force garbage down their throats and before they choked to death, they voted for Trump!

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.
Its more likely to happen than Georgia, South Carolina, or Texas.
