I feel like Judis and Teixeira did America a double disservice. By convincing both parties that ethnic bloc voting + demographic destiny = permanent Dem dominance, they made the Dems complacent and the GOP insane and xenophobic.
Haha. They were always xenophobic, if not in your circles.
There was always a xenophobic contingent, but it was not always dominant, as evidenced by Reagan's amnesty and encouragement of Mexican immigration.
I apologize for conflating different issues. But the GOP 4ank and file I have always known from childhood in IN to adulthood in TX is really quite racist. And that's why i am always baffled when people suggest it hasn't always been in charge. Although i know Reagan!= Goldwater
Anti-black racism has been fairly constant, at least in recent decades, but anti-immigrant xenophobia has had big ups and downs, at least if you believe A) polls, and B) policies.
I dunno, they seemed to me to be racists that could turn on a dime. Anti-black every day, yes, and inventing slurs as needed for Arabs or Hispanics as required by circumstance. This wing was not dominant before Trump, sure, but they were courted by the President and it shows.
