Only Whites vote for the GOP, so it is the party of identity politics [View all]

Narcissistic and self-centered conservatives honestly believe that the Democrats, a party that wins the vote from every segment of the U.S. population, is somehow the party of identity politics. Meanwhile, the Republicans, a party that almost exclusively draws its votes from one racial demographic, is somehow the "normal" party.

To the GOP, women are viewed and treated as minorities.

Yes, a demographic that makes up more than half of the American population is a minority to Republicans.

That just about sums up their problem.
