2016 to 2020: Trump's win both outrages wokes and convinces them to up rhetoric. There is nothing too far left as long as it's left. Trump's twitter wars on things from NFL kneelers to 'Mexican judges' helps keep things hotter than if a more self controlled GOPer had been in office.

2020 to now: Biden's win moves many wokes from academics and low level govt jobs into high level federal positions to a far greater degree than under Obama or Clinton.

Important to note that even GOP dominated states allowed far left to take over K to 12 edu, local libraries, etc. They were too busy with dumb legislation on banning sharia law, abortion, Obamacare, etc. Even in deep red areas local schools have become far left to a surprising degree.

You only missed one important aspect of this situation. During the pandemic the democrats with the support of the biased media locked down the economy then weaponized the virus against Trump.

Republican (At least recently) charlatan Trump was able to whip up the Republican base with his race baiting. It worked in 2016 but his lies and over the top constant bashing of the Democratic at those ridiculous rallies, came back to bite him as the Dems showed up in record number. And please no more big lie shadow banning algorithms BS, Biden won fair and square.

It won't be long 2036 or 2040 until Texas turns blue. Thats is when the real trouble will begin for the Republicans.

No system is perfect and of course the Dems have many problems of their own. Just like many organized Unions the Democrats are a victim of their own success. That is how nutcases like the squad got elected. In the meantime the two party system works best. Both parties are necessary to keep each other in check
Per the bolded --- Maybe in your fevered imagination. Stop believing everything the MSM spoon feeds you. Did you know that Trump worked with Tim Scott to create opportunity zones in inner city neighborhoods? Those opportunity zones lead to lowering of unemployment rates. Did you know that Trump hosted more than one gathering at the WH for young conservative blacks?

It was your idol, Obama, that started the race baiting that is now being continued by so-called "woke" democrats.

Exactly, it is Obama who ignited class warfare in this country.

Fraud and corruption.

Well ....... When the alternative is this below we stand a pretty good chance of winning over hearts and minds as Democrats.

Hillary starting lies against Trump. Dems and msm not reporting on corruption of Biden and his crooked son. MSM on their side lies and hides truths.

The left are very nasty and lie, deny and are the biggest hypocrites ever.

Republicans need to stop being so nice. Our country is at stake.

First off.....I am an independent voter. I lean more towards libertarian.

I only watch fox or msn on occasion for the entertainment value. Both are great comedic theater.

I never said Trump never tried to anything good for the African American community. But he has said and done many racist things in the past. Charlottesville, birther nonsense ect.....try googling it. Or better yet ask some African Americans.

He didn't say anything "racist" about Charlottesville. Maybe you should do some googling yourself
