America Is Dividing Into Red and Blue Economic Blocs, and Red America Is Winning
From Ed Morrissey at Hot Air, the rabidly left/globalist Economist frets about the brain drain away from blue states and cities.
But-but-but Democrats are so smaaaart, obviously they should be making more money. Why aren't they, then? Well, for one thing, they're not that smart. Also, a lot of them grew up being paid for by their wealthy parents. They lack drive and grit. For another thing, they have certain "disadvantages." I'll allow FBI profiler Will Graham to explain.
These trends play out across America. Along with Kai Wu of Sparkline Capital, a fund manager, we assembled 30 listed firms that are seen favourably by Republicans or Democrats, based on surveys. The process was inevitably arbitrary: there is no single poll that covers all companies. In the end, the Republican basket included firms such as John Deere, Fox and Harley-Davidson, whereas the Democratic one featured Etsy, Lululemon, Lyft and more. The recent market turmoil hit the Republican basket hard. But in the past decade its shareholder returns, including dividends, have thrashed the blue basket (see chart 3). Why do MAGA companies seem to outperform? Maybe they eschew virtue-signalling. Point Bridge America First, an exchange-traded fund that uses the stock ticker MAGA, only includes firms that support Republicans. The Democratic Large-Cap Core Fund, with the stock ticker DEMZ, invests in companies that make big donations to the Democrats. Since the end of 2020 MAGA's price has easily outperformed DEMZ. Goldman Sachs, a bank, has built a stock index containing firms "that could benefit from key Republican policies", such as those in oil. In the past decade the share prices of these companies have comfortably beaten the market. ...
There are more Buddy Garritys today. In 2024, 47% of Americans reporting annual incomes above $1m lived in Trump-voting states, up from 43% in 2014. Incomes among poorer folk are rising, too. Population growth is strong. ... Republican states including Florida and Texas are still enticing internal migrants. And with local consumer confidence strong, expect spending in MAGA-land to hold up better than in Democratic-leaning areas.
A new national poll released this week is one of the first to indicate a bump up in President Donald Trump's approval ratings after a steady edging down in the president's numbers since he returned to office in January.Many of you will say "the polls are rigged." Yeah, I mostly feel that way. Still, it's something to see some upward movement even in a poll rigged against Trump.
Advertisement Trump stands at 44% approval and 52% disapproval in a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted Monday and Tuesday (May 12-13). The president's approval rating edged up two points -- which is within the survey's sampling error -- from the previous Reuters/Ipsos national survey, which was in the field late last month. Likely fueling the modest increase in the president's overall approval rating is his performance on the economy. The new poll indicates 39% of adults nationwide give Trump a thumbs up on how he is handling the economy, up three points from last month.
Time for a reality check... I think some folks thought Trump's approval rating would keep falling, but it's rising.

Ipsos has his net approval going from -8 pts to -1 pt with voters. Aggregate has him up higher than late April too & much higher than at this point in term 1. pic.twitter.com/uP0xYvnnnZ

Blue states get wealthy because their pols loot the treasury
Red states get wealthy because they make things.
With Trump cutting off USAID and similiar boondoggles of course it is going to hit the blue states harder.

If industry starts resurging, it's the "Right to Work" states that are going to benefit...and those are, predominately, red states.
I think South Carolina is going to blow up economically. I still remember companies like Mack Trucks flipping PA the bird and opening up a plant there due to forced unions in PA.

Blue states have always been vastkly dumber than red states, despite the media narrative staing the opposite. I proved this in my 2004 essay, "Are Bush Voters Really So "Dumb"?":
http://www.zombietime.com/iq_of_2004_voters_by_state/
The upshot:
If you looks at the sttats county by county instead of state by state, it is revealed clearly that poor/minority counties in otherwise "red" states are the ones voting blue, but are also the ones with the low average IQ, dragging down the states' averages. Taking this crucial drill-down into account, Dem voters are and always have been on avergae much "dumber.:

They play a lot of games by using different levels of analysis.
So, for example, laugh at those red voting hicks in the deep south because their states are ranked lower in something or other - but if you instead compare the red and blue voting areas *in* those states the red areas are almost always better.

And the blogger took a long time to get to the answer. So what is the answer?
Mass has had fedgov showering it in wealth for "education" and "research" for decades. Take away those funds and you'll have another Maine...with crappier seafood.

Downside of this is blue locusts eventually destroy their new homes. My area has exploded with new people in the past 10 years. For the most part it’s been political refugees from blue state shitholes. But even they can’t let go of “for the children” shit and vote for increases in taxes. Plus even though not directly, an increase in population brings crime more crime, more gangs, more illegals to cater to them. Everything they left will materialize here eventually.

My favorite red/blue analysis of all time...
I was on a forum that was supposedly non-political but had a strong leftwing bias.
Someone posted a "fat map" based on states and sure enough those red state hicks in the deep south were all fatties. Oh the laughs posters had...
Until someone took the same data and broke it down by racial/voting groups and counties - showing that the weight problem was much, much worse in the blue voting black areas in those states.
Now, of course, the fat map was no longer funny but instead rayciss. And who are you white supremacists to say that some arbitrary weight is better then another anyway?

The future belongs to those who show up.
Fertility rates are always, always lower in cities, and progressives are concentrated in cities. Take NYC:
"The TFR is highest for women who live in Rockland, Jefferson and Orange counties and lowest for women in Otsego, New York City (Manhattan) and Tompkins counties."
I can't find the actual number, but...lowest in a state that's already only at 1.55 is...not helping the average.

I think the polls call numbers in certain urban area codes in the specific percentages they need to get the results they want.
I think they target & over represent certain favorable demographics as much as possible.
That's why I believe the polls have been and will always be skewed by anywhere from +10 - +20% Dems.

Is that like the toddler in the grocery store who drops to the ground, holds its breath and turns blue because Mom wouldn't buy Cap'n Crunch...only to have others blame the parent for not buying it?

49 I think the polls call numbers in certain urban area codes in the specific percentages they need to get the results they want.
I think they target & over represent certain favorable demographics as much as possible.
That's why I believe the polls have been and will always be skewed by anywhere from +10 - +20% Dems.

You're describing response bias.
And it's apparently more self-selection than anything else. Boomer libs love telling strangers on the phone their opinions on Trump and won't turn down the opportunity.

Florida could get interesting. DeSantis has announced that he's serious about creating a world-class university, and that president he cribbed from U Mich is hungry for it.

Downside of this is blue locusts eventually destroy their new homes. My area has exploded with new people in the past 10 years. For the most part it’s been political refugees from blue state shitholes. But even they can’t let go of “for the children” shit and vote for increases in taxes. Plus even though not directly, an increase in population brings crime more crime, more gangs, more illegals to cater to them. Everything they left will materialize here eventually.

I don't think it's a stretch to assume that one reason Gen-Z is so conservative is that progressives are having far fewer kids than conservatives.
Obviously, there's a lot else going on, but most kids follow the politics of their parents.

My county in NY has been overrun by NYC refugees. Chic restaurants open then close, as do bars. Old time restaurants owned by locals do ok. No new industry has been brought in, because of taxes , regulations, environmental crap and activists. We get new "workforce housing" which end up being Section 8. Many of my friends kids have left for greener pastures. And leftist Dems control everything. Also one of Buffets kids has made this area his leftist charity case. Still my hometown however

Ohio is fairly red with a purplish hue. It could swing back to purple if Columbus continues to boom with imports from around the world (some citizens, some not so much). But even when Rep wins, you end up with center-left squishes like DeWine. Ohio has still not adopted the policies to strengthen the economy and expand freedom. Curious to see of Ramaswamy or an even better candidate emerges to make a difference. Otherwise it'll flip back.

UCLA Pro-Palestine protester rushed to the hospital after collapsing on Day 9 of her hunger strike.
Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks[/i
"Hunger strike" is simply another way of saying "anorexia with a purpose."
Seriously, there was a girl at UC Berkeley who was part of a protest group over some stupid issue, and she went on a hunger strike -- but oif you saw her at the beginning of the hunger strike, ity was patently obviously that already was anorexic. And from her smug self-satisfied smile as it progressed, it became clear that she just wanted justification and societal approval fro her anorexia, so she hitched a ride on some political cause to make it seem praiseworthy.

NEW: UCLA Pro-Palestine protester rushed to the hospital after collapsing on Day 9 of her hunger strike.
The protester, 'Maya', and her friend are blaming UCLA for her hospitalization and decision not to eat any food.
I'm astonished that one of them didn't eat during the "hunger strike". Last I knew, the Leftist way to do hunger strikes was to trade off in four hour shifts.

Meant What is "real deal"? Is Medicaid being cut. Someone was on about this yesterday saying that and cutting food stamps would sew up the Midterms for Dems, but I thought the approach was to get rid of fraud?
Posted by: FenelonSpoke at May 19, 2025 04:54 PM (nFq4j)
The House Republican reconciliation legislation currently under consideration in the Energy & Commerce Committee would take away health coverage and leave at least 8.6 million people uninsured as it cuts at least $715 billion in health care spending, mostly from Medicaid, according to initial estimates by the Congressional Budget Office. Among other harmful proposals, the bill would cut the federal matching rate for the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) Medicaid expansion in the 14 states plus the District of Columbia that created and fund, solely with their own state funds, comprehensive health coverage programs to cover people without a documented immigration status.

Those cuts are not removing coverage from people except tranny surgeries. The food stamp cuts are to restrict the food to, you know, food and not junk.

"The U.S. Department of Justice began an investigation into Mayor Brandon Johnson Monday over allegations of race-based discrimination, citing his recent remarks at a Woodlawn church in which he emphasized how many Black people he’s hired in his administration.
Johnson received a letter from assistant attorney general Harmeet Dhillon saying there is “reasonable cause” to believe the mayor “made hiring decisions solely on the basis of race,” in potential violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. "

I would assume - based on absolutely nothing - that maintaining a heavier body would deplete needed vitamins/minerals more quickly and could cause fatal health issues even when the body still has energy stores.

NEW: UCLA Pro-Palestine protester rushed to the hospital after collapsing on Day 9 of her hunger strike.
The protester, 'Maya', and her friend are blaming UCLA for her hospitalization and decision not to eat any food.
This is what happens when UCLA ignores their students. She's going to the hospital; she just passed out. UCLA, please hear her. She's literally being hospitalized because of you. This is on you, UCLA.

UCLA is partially at fault, so they're kind of right about that. They fed her head with propaganda and lies. A postmodern, godless, worldview, which she embraced. Mostly, though, it's her fault. She made the choice. Choices have consequences.

Near as I can figure, their philosophy is "red or blue doesn't matter, as long as the money is green").

The New Republic: Trump’s Approval Rating Plummets in Just About Every Category. The poll, conducted between May 1 and May 6 with 1,000 adults, showed that 56 percent disapprove of the overall job that Trump is doing as president. Trump is also sitting on multiple net negatives. He is -32 on inflation and -17 on jobs and the economy, policies that were central to the promises he made in his reelection campaign. He is -16 on foreign policy and -15 on education.
Maybe some Republicans in Congress will finally wake up. His agenda is a disaster and they are running out of time before the next election.
the only polling group that matters is repubs in congress. they worship the guy. Sadly, would probably still be re-elected.
The idiot shouldn't have even 10 percent approval. WTF is wrong with people? And Harry Enten claims his ratings have improved 🙄
On the whole, they have. This is one poll commissioned by the website 'Strength in Numbers'. It doesn't mean it's not accurate or accurate. But Trump's average disapproval has definitely ticked down since reaching a high of 52% on April 28.

The Democrat-Media Complex will scream that every President MUST have three comprehensive physicals per year, performed by a panel of five Top Doctors selected by the Mayo Clinic. Every step to be televised, all possible physical and bodily fluids tests run and results posted on-line, a comprehensive psychiatric exam with results made public, and whatever else quack Democrat doctors can think of. To begin with the current President, of course.

Everything's better with red bonnet on it.
This is the kind of ignorance which gets us mocked by the left. The robes are red. The bonnet is white.
Surely you've seen Handmaids. You're not an infiltrator, are you?

> 96 8-Meant What is "real deal"? Is Medicaid being cut. Someone was on about this yesterday saying that and cutting food stamps would sew up the Midterms for Dems, but I thought the approach was to get rid of fraud?
Trump has said more than once that no one legitimately on Medicaid or Medicare is going to see a benefit cut.
So I guess it boils down to whether you believe Trump or a bunch of screeching communists.
The usual tell is that they talk about "people" losing benefits. Not U.S. citizens who are receiving legitimate benefits.
"People".

It might have been feasible if they'd gone with the orignal idea of running up the coast.
But somehow it got moved hundreds of miles inland which added hours to the trip.

The coastal route is no picnic either - rugged coast mountains, hardly room for current traffic on the highways.

Speaking of infiltrators.
Remember The Terminator? Schwarzenegger is supposed to be able to blend in as an average post-apocalyptic person right? Even though he's going to weigh twice as much as even a big guy at that point (ain't nobody has time for steroids when the killbots are after you) and he doesn't speak with a common American accent either. How would they NOT notice he was a robot?

It's a dumb idea anyhow.
It works in Europe & Japan & China because people would rather do that than fly or drive.
That's not a problem in this country.
They could've beefed up & modernized Amtrak and got good results for people who like train travel.
