Some interesting data from Republican pollster Bill McInturff (NBC/Wall Street Journal Poll) on the change in the composition of the Republican Party before and during the Trump Era.
2010: non-college whites =50%; College whites= 40%, non-whites=10%
2012: non-college whites =48%; college whites= 40%; non-whites= 12%
2014: non-college whites = 49%; college whites= 38%: non-whites= 13%
2016: non-college whites = 56%; college whites= 33%; non-whites= 11%
2018: non-college whites = 59%; college whites= 29%; non-whites= 12%
Positive spin: there’s been a big increase for the GOP in non-college whites and it’s still the largest single demographic group.
Negative spin: the GOP is more dependent than ever on the one segment of the electorate that has been dropping like clockwork for the last 20 years and is projected to continue to decline as a percentage of total registrants.

So according to these numbers there was an influx of non-college whites from 2016-18. I suspect that a lot of these people were former blue collar democrats.
I have to think that the 'non-white' numbers are misleading. Even Obama 'only' got about 80% of the non-white vote, not the 87%-90% suggested by this. I don't know what the number was for Hillary, but I'm guessing even less.
If you believe it. NBC likes to tell lies and polls of a few hundred people are meaningless. Russiagate anyone.
I tend to believe data that is verified by different sources, and unlike you, I don’t believe they’re crooks spreading lies for their political masters.
Their end product may be eight or wrong, but they have competitors and it’s in their own economic best interests to play it straight.

These numbers are the make up of the Republican Party. Many are Independents and would vote for either Party in the general elections.
