Dems losing ground in 29 states

 Trending Politics:

A new report from the New York Times is ringing the alarm bells about a hidden crisis that most within the Democratic Party don’t even know exists. Out of 30 states that track voter registration by political party affiliation, Democrats ended up losing ground to the GOP in all but one of them between 2020 and 2024, causing them to hemorrhage voters before they even reach the polls.

Overall, the numbers were staggering.

In total, the NYT pointed out that during that four-year period, the shift toward the Republican Party added up to a whopping 4.5 million voters. The article stated that the deficit could take Democrats years to recover from.

Data indicates voters aren’t simply walking away from the Democratic Party. It’s a full-on stampede. And it’s happening in battleground states, blue states, and red states, too. The analysis of this crisis for the left was completed by the NYT and used voter registration data compiled by L2, a nonpartisan data firm.

“Few measurements reflect the luster of a political party’s brand more clearly than the choice by voters to identify with it — whether they register on a clipboard in a supermarket parking lot, at the Department of Motor Vehicles or in the comfort of their own home. And fewer and fewer Americans are choosing to be Democrats. In fact, for the first time since 2018, more new voters nationwide chose to be Republicans than Democrats last year,” the article said.

The analysis revealed the Democrats lost 2.1 million registered voters in the 30 states that have party registration, as well as Washington, D.C., between 2020 and 2024.

Republicans, on the other hand, gained 2.4 million.

In my lifetime I have seen Texas move from being a Democrat controlled state to Republican.  I have certainly made that move.  Sen. John Tower started that movement.  Now most state officials from the governor on down are Republicans.  The current Democrats appear to have lost touch with the majority of voters.  They are seen as too liberal and too out of touch.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
