Mac and I discussed an article from the NY Post. Here is the link.
The article titled “A realignment — if Trump can keep it: 2024 results signal a new political era” from the New York Post discusses the political implications of Donald Trump’s 2024 election victory. It suggests that Trump’s win could lead to a significant political realignment, potentially giving Republicans control over American politics for a generation or more.
Exit polls indicated that more voters identified as Republicans than Democrats, a phenomenon not seen since 1928, which could signify a major shift in voter allegiance. However, it is important to remember that Democrats still outnumber Republicans over all.
The success of this realignment hinges on Trump’s performance during his term. If he manages to keep the economy strong, control illegal migration, and avoid international conflicts, he could solidify the Republican lead. However, failures in these areas could lead to a Republican setback.
If Trump expands the GOP’s lead, it would resemble the realignment seen during Ronald Reagan’s era, where Republicans and Democrats were nearly balanced. In such a scenario, Democrats would need to adopt a more moderate stance to compete.
