So much “TDS”

Back to the Walkaway thread.

 

 

 

From Gerard Baker’s Wall Street Journal column today:

 

In not much more than a generation, virtually all the protagonists, values and identities of ideological competition have swapped places.

 

Not very long ago, college-educated professionals voted for Republicans in vast numbers, while blue-collar workers picked Democrats. Now a college degree is the most reliable indicator of Democratic preference; the proletariat is dependably Republican.

 

Liberals used to be passionate defenders of free speech; now progressives seek to shut down dissent wherever they find it.

 

The left once regarded domestic intelligence agencies as a threat to democracy and individual freedom; now they embrace them as essential weapons against their domestic adversaries, whom they accuse of “misinformation” and “sedition.”

 

Democrats were traditionally suspicious of and hostile to big business. Now, on issue after issue—climate alarmism, “diversity,” the virtues of a borderless world—they are tightly aligned.

"Asian, Black and Latino voters have flipped to the Republicans in such large numbers that the Democrats are in huge trouble, the story goes."

 

"The GOP could become the party of a 'multiracial working class.'... At the same time, voters of color have favored Democrats by more than 35 percentage points in every recent election.

 

Writes Perry Bacon Jr. in "'Voters of color' are shifting in complicated ways" (WaPo).

Democrat Switches Parties, Hands Republicans Super-Majority in Key Swing State

 

 

In North Carolina, though, things are a little less tenuous after a Democrat state representative decided to switch parties, becoming a Republican. More importantly, the move will give the GOP a super-majority in the chamber.

 

This news comes via Axios.

Why a North Carolina Democrat’s Party Switch Is an Even Bigger Deal Than You Might Think

 

Though former President Donald Trump’s arraignment is undeniably and understandably the biggest news of the day in America, a huge political story is also playing out in North Carolina – and it’s one that, unlike the Trump news, has Democrats seething with rage, and calling for resignations.

 

As we previously reported, Rep. Tricia Cotham, who represents the 112th District in the North Carolina House, is set to announce on Wednesday that she is switching her party affiliation from Democrat to Republican.

 

A former school teacher and principal, Cotham served as a Democrat in the state legislature from 2007 to 2017, and took time away from that before running again in 2022 as a Democrat and winning.

 

While the Usual Suspects on the left in NC politics are already foaming at the mouth over Cotham’s move, calling it blatantly political, neutral political observers have noted that there’s more than meets the eye here. After all, Cotham is in a district seen as reliably blue, and seeing someone in that type of district switch from Democrat to Republican is something you just don’t see very often if at all from someone who in the eyes of their critics is “playing politics”:

From the life long Democrat

 

During a press conference Wednesday, Cotham officially announced her decision, and laid bare exactly why she no longer felt welcomed in the North Carolina Democratic party:

 

“The modern-day Democratic party has become unrecognizable to me, and to so many others around this state and this country. The party wants to villainize anyone who has free thought, free judgment, has solutions, who wants to get to work to better our state. Not just sit in a meeting and have a workshop after a workshop, but really work with individuals to get things done. Because that’s what real public servants do. If you don’t do exactly what Democrats want you to do, they will try to bully you, they will try to cast you aside.”

Democrats dealt another blow: third lawmaker leaves party, switches to Republican within a month

by Brandon Gillespie

 

Democrats were dealt another blow from within their own ranks this week as yet another state lawmaker declared he was leaving the party. According to a Monday report by The Advocate, a Louisiana-based newspaper, state Rep. Jeremy LaCombe announced he had left the Democratic Party and would be registering as a Republican. It was not immediately clear what prompted LaCombe's departure, however he is now the second Louisiana Democrat in less than a month to switch party affiliations, and the third nationwide after another state lawmaker in North Carolina did the same.

In a slap to Muslim girls, Stuyvesant HS is canceling single-sex swim lessons, even though swim instruction is required to graduate.

 

That forces the girls to choose between preserving their modesty and getting a diploma.

 

Count on Muslim families to fight back — and likely prevail.

 

Nationwide, Muslims are taking up the battle in schools to protect traditional religious values, including modesty.

 

Move over, Roman Catholics, evangelical Christians and conservative Jews.

 

Reinforcements have arrived, and they’re turning the tide.

 

Even in the Ivy League.

 

After weeks of protests by female Muslim students, Yale University is switching its campus-housing policy for the coming academic year to offer single-gender dorms and bathrooms.

 

From Michigan to Virginia, Muslim parents are showing up at local school-board meetings to oppose graphic sex education and gender-fluidity indoctrination.

 

Their engagement is influencing politics.

 

More Muslims are voting Republican, concluding the Democratic Party is trampling Islamic values.

 

In Dearborn, Mich., left-wing Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib opposed the Muslim parents in her district protesting sexually explicit materials in school.

 

The Biden administration, meanwhile, continues its lurch to the extreme left.

ERODING DEMOCRAT PARTY POWER

 

Our friends at the Committee to Unleash Prosperity pass along this interesting forecast: The stampede of people moving out of Blue States may slow before the end of the decade, but if it continues apace, this is what the shift in congressional seats in the 2030 Census would look like.  Democrats could lose another 10 to 12 seats to red states like Texas, Florida and Tennessee.
