Are they too busy combatting CRT?
"The House has approved an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act to compel government officials to prepare a report on combating white supremacists and neo-Nazi activity in the police and military, despite every Republican voting against the measure."

"Repeatedly, Whitfield asked the lawmakers what they would do about his mother’s death. Republicans, in their refusal to acknowledge the unique harm being done by Carlson, party leaders and white supremacists, gave their answer: not a thing."

"Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday said there's "no place" for white supremacists in the Republican party after two GOP members of Congress attended a white nationalist event over the weekend. "

Bingola?
Interesting info, and there’s certainly no place for white supremacy, however, it doesn’t prove that the core of the GOP are white nationalists…so no bingo yet

Well, there's this thing called Great Replacement Theory.

GRT started in France circa 2011 with author Renaud Camus of France. He proposed that the French and White European populations are being demographically and culturally replaced with non-white people, at the behest of elites who seek to change the populations in order to gain control of the nations where it is supposedly happened. GRT *is* as white nationalist as it gets.

Great Replacement Theory has been picked up in the United States, wherein the elites are reputed to be engaged in a systematic program to increase the number of racial minorities in order to displace the White American population.

The Southern Poverty Law Center and Tulchin Research conducted a survey in April 2022 and found that seven in ten Republicans surveyed agree at least somewhat with the proposition that demographic changes occurring in the Unites States are being driven by liberal and/or progressive politicians, who are attempting to gain political power by replacing White conservative voters.

Who believes the SPLC survey? Republican politicians, or at least they believe that their constituencies believe in Great Replacement Theory. Arizona Senate Republican candidate Blake Master, Missouri Senate Republican Candidate Eric Schmitt, and Ohio Senate Republican candidate JD Vance have all reference concepts of Replacement Theory in their campaigns.

Is there a precise and hard number for White Nationalists at the core of the Republican Party - not to ErieGuy's satisfaction.

But that's his argument - since no one can show him his exact answer, then the exact opposite must be true.

That's not an argument. That's a logically fallacy.

And once again, the status quo escapes unscathed and entirely intact.

One simple question...exactly how "precise and hard" must a number be for you to accept it...for any reason whatsover?

...

For anyone wondering WTF, this was a thread about the Pennsylvanian Republican candidates for Governor and US Senator not exactly doing so well in their respective electoral campaigns.

It devolved into erieguy doing his best to drag the thread off topic so that he wouldn't have to address the thread topic, but still (in his own mind) declare some sort of victory.

Yeah, like I already said: the people who believe this must read the New York Times and listen to NPR. I heard and read a whole lot from those news services about how Republicans would soon be finished because white people were being replaced. Here's a little tip for the future: if you don't want people to know that you think a certain thing, don't constantly talk about it publicly.

I like looking at stats like number of posts and reputation points.
I’m glad they are prominently displayed.

Love the deflection as you obviously don’t have proof to their claim either, lol.

I do think it is a relevant data point.
