The Left is in panic mode. They can’t seem to agree on anything after losing big time on election day.
And now the Democrat Party is collapsing after the mainstream media completely betrayed them.
A recent New York Times report titled “For Minority Working-Class Voters, Dismay With Democrats Led to Distrust” sheds light on why many minority and working-class voters turned their backs on the Democratic Party and embraced President-elect Donald Trump in the 2024 election.
Traditionally, Democrats have relied on strong support from minority and working-class voters, but Trump shattered expectations by making historic gains among Black, Hispanic, and blue-collar Americans this election cycle.
The Times revealed that interviews conducted over the past year with Latino, Black, and Asian American voters across the nation consistently highlighted a common theme: disillusionment with how the Democratic Party has failed to address their concerns.
Daniel Trujillo, an East Las Vegas barbershop owner, captured this sentiment when he described how he and many of his customers see the Democrats today.
“Democrats flipped,” he told the Times. “They went from being for the working class to, if you’re not college-educated and have money, you’re not worthy.”
Trujillo praised the GOP’s shift in focus under Trump, saying, “The right turned blue-collar and went full border-control, strong-economy and law-and-order. Who doesn’t want that?”
For many voters, the Democratic Party’s warnings about Trump being a “threat to democracy” fell flat compared to more immediate concerns, particularly skyrocketing costs of living.
David Paiz, a 52-year-old maintenance worker in Las Vegas who moved from California to escape high expenses, views Trump’s election as a pivotal moment.
“There’s a lot of things that I want to do, that we want to do for our sons, for their future, to prepare them for success,” Paiz told the Times.
“But with the current administration, I didn’t see that happening. Now that Trump’s going to be our new president, I see a lot more opportunities.”
Other voters expressed similar frustrations, linking their struggles with affordability directly to Democratic leadership. Walter Mendoza, a 30-year-old financial adviser in Allentown, Pennsylvania, emphasized the strain on families like his.
“People can’t afford nothing,” Mendoza told the newspaper. “So I’m voting for somebody who could more manage the country better.”
Mendoza hopes that under Trump’s leadership, Americans will no longer be stuck living paycheck-to-paycheck and will finally be able to enjoy “a couple nice things.”
The Times report also noted that many minority working-class voters found the Democratic Party’s priorities to be disconnected from their daily struggles.
Issues like abortion and debates over transgender rights, they said, seemed irrelevant compared to their immediate needs. Words like “condescending” were used by some to describe the party’s tone.
Trump’s landslide victories in all seven battleground states this election reflect this growing shift. According to a Fox News Voter Analysis, 63% of voters who identified as “falling behind financially” backed Trump over Kamala Harris.
The president-elect also made significant strides with key demographic groups, gaining six points with Hispanic voters and eight points among voters under 30.
For minority working-class voters, Trump’s message of economic opportunity and prioritizing working families resonated deeply, marking a shift that could reshape the political landscape for years to come.
