The demographics confirm what most Americans already know. Tony Evers and Tammy Baldwin represent The Rich.
...Democrats, in fact, represent far wealthier districts and constituents than the GOP,” the report reads. “For example, over the last three presidential election cycles, Democratic candidates won counties with a higher share of aggregate GDP than Donald Trump.”
Astoundingly, just during Trump’s time atop the Republican Party the past decade, this existing trend has grown far more profound. In 2016, the counties that Trump won nationwide amounted to 36 percent of aggregate GDP and the counties that Clinton won represented 64 percent of aggregate GDP. During the 2020 election, Trump’s counties represented 29 percent of aggregate GDP while Biden’s represented 71 percent. In 2024, Trump counties represented 37 percent of aggregate GDP while Harris-won counties represented 63 percent of aggregate GDP....
So the Left--the Party of Tony Evers and Tammy Baldwin--represents The Rich.
The report goes on:
“The ‘successful’ class — defined not just by income, but by education, geography, and cultural homogeneity — is seceding in large part to the Democratic Party and away from Republicans. By ‘secession,’ we (and Reich) mean moving into a hermetically sealed, elite cultural bubble, set apart from the working class and poorer populations, which are increasingly afflicted by the nation’s most crushing social pathologies. According to the latest data, uncovered by CGCN researchers, those most beset by social and economic maladies — with some exceptions — are far more prevalent in Republican, rather than Democratic, districts.”
There's a lot more to this than just money.
...Beyond the economic numbers, several social statistics also demonstrate a much higher quality of life for the very rich Democrats in America.
“Opioid deaths are far more common in the poorest areas,” the CGCN report reads. “There are 19.6233 opioid deaths per 100,000 in the wealthiest districts. This number is even higher in the poorest districts. It jumps to 32.466 opioid deaths per 100,000 in the poorest districts. Firearm homicides are also far more common in the poorest districts. There are 13.39 firearm homicides per 100,000 people in the poorest districts. This number is 3.2 per 100,000 for the wealthiest districts. The poorest districts are trailing in high school completion. The average for the top 30 wealthiest districts is 92.93% with the number dropping to 84.66% for the poorest districts. The poorest districts have a lower life expectancy by about five years. The average life expectancy for the top 30 wealthiest districts is 81.333 years. For the poorest districts it falls to 75.82.”...
Patrick J Buchanan began the Republican Party's move back to the people. Donald Trump saw PJB's point and took it from there. Meantime, the Democrats did what the Republicans of the Eisenhower era did: got fat and lazy.
BTW, this portends a landslide victory for Tom Tiffany in '26.
