There will be a realignment; it will probably be in the 2030s, and it may involve the Dems becoming the party of the rich.
False.
(Conversing with you how you converse with others.)
-Come on, man, this is like a Vermonter in the 1950s saying the Dems will never win Vermont because they're too racist.
No, it's not. You're completely projecting a trend based on what you want to happen. MUH THE PEOPLE VS. THE ELITES. It hasn't happened in modern times, and it never will again; politics will never be that simple ever again.
Just because something happened in the past (Presidential voting trickling down in the South, for example) does not mean it's destined to happen in the future.

Copy and paste my response from him to you, lol. Our political coalitions are QUITE gray on matters of class, unless you’re desperate to paint your side as “for the people” or “for the elites.” Neither side is either, unless you’re a chump and a sucker.
It is true that both political parties are grey on matters of class. Both parties consist of groups that have been disadvantaged by the current political order (the white working class in the GOP, minorities in the Democratic party). However, it is not unreasonable to speculate that these groups (or instead, the children of these groups who are more easily moldable and currently do not vote because they feel left out of politics) will eventually join forces under a single party and instigate a political realignment. The question is whether they unite under the democratic or republican party. There is, in my opinion, immense potential for both parties to become this party. So I guess we'll find out the answer to that question over the next few election cycles.
