First Workers, Now Blacks: Democrats’ Betrayals For Big Business Are Piling Up, But Can Republicans Seize It?

Over the course of 70 years, the Democratic Party grew from the party of segregation that Martin Luther King Jr. marched against to the party that commands 90 percent of black votes.

In the summer of 2020, the desires of black Americans were the sole obsession of the Democratic Party.

Political History Can Help Explain What's Going On But while that might explain what, it doesn't explain why, so what more is at play here? The answer might be found in the same history that transformed the Republican Party of Abraham Lincoln into the Republican Party of Richard Nixon.

In 2021, Democrats didn't either, despite those viral accusations that "Democrats are the real racists!" Rather, the parties changed in other ways.

In the end, the priorities of the Republican Party were with one class, the priorities of the Democratic Party with the other.

The Democratic Party has become beholden to the Big Business it once hated so much, even at the expense of Big Labor and Big Race.

Wall Street, Silicon Valley - these centers of wealth chart their party's path.

Lower-class components of the Democratic party go by the wayside.

A change like that takes the active participation of both parties.

In D.C., even the minority party has tools to defund vaccine mandates.

If Big Business was as smart as it once was, its titans would donate to both parties equally.
