According to reports I had recently seen following the snap election, the tories only mustered around 28% of the nonwhite vote in the UK.

That is either just as poor as or only marginally better than the GOP performance in recent years.

The tories are also much more leftwing than the GOP- on healthcare, welfare, childcare, education, etc.

If the tories can't make inroads with ethnic minorities in the UK, then how can the GOP?

Isn't this what conservatives have been saying? Democrat Lite appeals to no one. Also, isn't this right around the vote share Republicans get?

Is that really as terrible as you're describing it in a multi-party system where they only got 43% overall?

*thinks about it for a second*

*realizes Trump only got like 3 points more than that*


Hmm...

European countries tend to be more left-leaning culturally speaking.

Let's hold the newly found protectionists and "populists" in our party to this same standard.

Trump got around 21% of the non-white vote in 2016 so 28% isn't bad for the Tories I don't think.
