1/ Reposting last thread...made a typo and since Twitter doesn't let you edit (which is ridiculous), I'm having to start over...
2/ The Trump cultists are going to be really shocked in a few years when they discover all their crackdowns on immigrants won't stop the demographic shift afoot in this country...
3/ Even if they got their wall, slashed asylum entries to zero and stepped up deportations, the fact is, the end of the white majority is coming and there is nothing they can do about it, bc it was never immigration driving that change...
4/ Most of the demographic change has been due to fertility rate differences, and NOT (as many believe) bc women of color of childbearing age have lots more kids than white women, but simply bc as a percentage of the whole, more women of color are of peak childbearing age...
5/ The median age of white women is about 9 years older than for black women and 10-11 years older than for Latinas. And younger women have more time to birth children than older women who are passing from peak fertility (white female median is around 40 right now)...
6/ So some white folks need to grow up. America is changing and if you don't like it you can leave (as you love telling others). Oh, and be grateful for those POC...they'll be the ones keeping your social security afloat as well as the economy after your old ass retires...
