Reflecting on Areas Where Trump Did Better.

Bush did better in many majority-minority areas, not just limited to Hispanics but also Asians and African-Americans, why? Going forward will the 2008 nominee expand upon these gains?

Fixed for 2005

This would suggest that 2024 will be a decisive Democratic win, and that's possible, but not very likely.

How does it suggest that?  His point seems to be that one election does not equal a trend and things can snap back. 

I'm certainly aware of this, but there seems to be some on here who think that the Republicans are still destined to be a permanent minority in the long run.

And there seems to be some on here who think that the Republicans are still destined to get massive minority swings for the foreseeable future because of one election.

You're right. I don't believe in either extreme. I actually noted the other day that I still don't understand why Trump made the gains among black voters that he did last year.
