"coalition of the ascendant" = LOL. Winning elections is a little more complicated than that.
Exactly. If Republicans/right wingers want minorities to continue voting for the Democrats, that is exactly what will happen. I support Ryan's plan on Medicare, for example, but I am not voting for a Republican in the near future unless they specifically oppose Trump. Fascism must be opposed at all costs, even if that means I pay 2% more in taxes.
There's a reason why turnout was crummy this time around and Gary Johnson got over 3%. Too many people were dissatisfied with the candidates presented, and with very good reason.
