I'm losing respect for Gaetz. He utters an anti-white racial slur and makes race based appeals to non-whites in response to losing white voters. I thought the GOP opposes identity politics? Nancy Mace also accused Hunter Biden of having white privilege. The GOP is becoming woke before our eyes!

The GOP has been slaughtered at the polls over Roe V. Wade and fears of abortion bans so it's best to say it's a states rights matter and some states have already spoken on the matter. Somehow the GOP has to figure out a way to appeal to working class whites and college educated whites and if they can do so they should start wining elections again.

The disconcerting issue is that the Democrats are a black nationalist and anti-white party yet continue to win the college educated white vote. This is very bad and proof that although whites in general are becoming more racially conscious there are still way too many racial masochists among us.

What about focusing on anti white racism explicitly, it’s more anti anti white than being white nationalist. This also aligns with all voters being anti quotas, anti dei, pro assimilation.

Also pushing the need for assimilation allows to enter the conversation about lowering immigration out of concern for Americans rather than “fear” of immigrants. It’s simple in order for immigrants to assimilate as they always have it has to be at a manageable rate to avoid ethnic ghettos. Using terms like America is a community not a corporation and immigration should benefit Americans not corporations/ other countries would be really effective.

Also I think for the current illegals phrasing the issue as asylum fraud and that if they don’t meet the criteria for asylum they have to go back (95% don’t) and calling the place they wait asylum centers.

I usually avoid comments on electoral politics, as it is not my area of expertise, but I would suggest Geert Wilders as a model. In thee last election he won the young, improved his performance with educated voters and only suffered a six point gap between male and female voters. He dismounted his traditional anti-Islam hobby horse to focus on immigration directly. Liberalism and nationalism seem to be a winning combo, though it might be more difficult to replicate this in the United States, where religion is far stronger.
