True, I was born in 1966. Even that I was born in the 1960's, I studied the values of America from the start of World War II to the present day. With studying the values of the Republican party from the 1950's and into the 1970's -- the Republican party modeled themselves as the college educated -- having a respected job and family. They came from the New England states, New York, the Mid-West states, and California. They were in the political center of there era, and the center left. Some were conservative, but they always stayed the same year after year without bending to the wants and needs of any president.
Under Trump, Republicans are not in the center left, or in the middle of political thought. They have lost the New England values, the New York values, and lost any hope of picking off California. They have moved to the values of Texas, the bible belt of the deep south, and the Rocky Mountain states. They have divorced themselves from a foreign policy because of the failure of the Republican ideas of war as a source to governing. After thee terms of two Bush administration -- they have divorced themselves of the Bush era from 1980 to 2016.
With both political parties, they have gotten smaller with each election era. With the Republicans, they are older, they are less educated, they now renounced any design to have anyone supporting a foreign policy. They are tied to the religious right, but only have a unified policy against abortion. Republicans have the educated religious right, but needs to get the uneducated religious right to win a election.
Under the Trump era, they pick up the low information voters. The model Republican of the 2010's is a white male, has a $50,000 pick-up truck, have over $5000 in firer arms, lives in a model home with a value of less then $10,000. Has religious tattoos on his body, and has missing teeth. Lives in a county with less than 30,000 people, and when they drive into a city -- they have a 3x5 flag of the United States flying from the bed of their truck. That is the icon of the Republican party of the Trump era.
This is the Trump era, and I do not see how it can become more worse after Trump leaves office.
