there is a huge labor shortage and unemployment is historically
low. You need immigrants for society to function

> The far right party wins on cultural issues, they don’t care
whether the economy is doing well or not, as the example you
gave of Northern European countries doing really well
economically yet have far right parties governing them.These
Northern European countries don’t actually have high immigration
like they want you to believe.

Common back when people actually thought in economic terms,
which rightists no longer do today.

> On Thursday, the Pew Research Center released an extensive
report looking at Americans’ views on race, gender and cultural
issues. It included questions that help delineate the unique
ways in which Trump supporters view those issues and the extent
to which insecurity about the status of White men, in
particular, is elemental to the movement.
> ...
> Also notice the staggering low numbers among White Trump
supporters, almost none of whom consider slavery to have ongoing
effects and almost none of whom believe that Whites have
systemic advantages in society.
> ...
> Just as Trump supporters are less likely to believe that there
are systemic obstacles for Black Americans, they are also more
likely to believe that systemic obstacles for women have been
overcome. For these questions, Pew broke out responses by gender
and age, showing that Trump-supporting men, particularly those
under the age of 50, believe that systemic sexism is a thing of
the past.
> ...
> There is research that shows that White Republicans are more
triggered by reports of the decline in the density of the White
population in America and that the idea of hard lines of racial
identity is overly simplistic. Pew’s research makes obvious how
the former concern manifests on the right.

> So does Johnson’s rhetoric, of course. He knows that he will
harvest more political utility from claiming that Democrats are
engaged in a plot to subvert White political dominance — which,
of course, was the subtext to his comments — so that’s what he
presents.
>
> He is giving Trump’s base what it wants.

His racially-tinged rhetoric is especially potent in a contest
against a Black opponent. It is the reason the contest is still
close, despite all of Harris’s momentum.

> The social and racial views of low-income white voters have
undermined the movement for progressive economic populism
throughout our history.

> Expect a close contest on Election Day. But don’t expect
groundbreaking movement on progressive economic initiatives as
long as low-income white voters vote their social prejudices
instead of their economic interests.

> It's always been about race since the Civil War. There is a
race of people that believe that they are humans of optimum
quality centered on their skin. During the Civil Rights Movement
the southern whites added a vehicle, yet in “theological terms,”
insinuating that since the Bible is incapable of containing any
mistake; they bonded “White supremacy and segregation” as legal.

misogyny. They need people who feel the same way to vote for
them.

but will not acknowledge what was done to millions of native
people here, exactly what they are scared of, they did. Trump is
the poster boy for racism.
