i have a new piece up at The Battleground about POC Trump voters. Despite claims that the 2024 results were merely because of economic issues or a ‘desire for whiteness,’ all POC groups have shifted further right in the last three elections.
percentage of vote by each racial groups in 2016 vs 2024
Black: 8% to 13%
Asian-American: 29% to 39%
Latino: 29% to 46%
Native American: 40% (2020 results) to up to 65%
from the article: “there is nothing unique to white people about ultranationalism; opposition to democracy and equality in favour of authoritarianism and conservative social hierarchies; and, of course, antisemitism, racism, misogyny, homophobia and xenophobia.”
