Why would the GOP be more popular if it was less racist? Tone down the racism and it's just the Democrats.

The GOP is based on protecting capitalist class interests, racist dogwhistles, and cultural grievances(mad they aren't cool, mostly). This appeals to their base of divorced dads, reptiles wearing human skin, and gamers.

The Dems are based on protecting capitalist class interests, paternalistic infantalizing, and being socially modern. This appeals to their base of wine moms, people who like Hamilton, and anyone who watches the Oscars.


Right, so if you take out the racism, you can keep the cultural grievances and win over a lot of religious and socially/fiscally conservative people of color and others concerned about overt racism. But racism is part of the platform so these people vote Democrat and Republicans just try to stop them from voting.
