If there’s one thing conservatives should want right now, it’s for Democrats to keep doubling down on the nonsense that’s driving their party off a cliff. Sure, it might be nice if the Democratic Party resembled the more moderate version of itself from the 1990s, but those days are long gone. The Left’s radical turn isn’t going away, and that’s something conservatives should welcome, because it’s accelerating their collapse.
Democrats are now in the weakest position they’ve been in for decades, and it’s not some temporary slump; it’s a structural failure. Just look at the voter registration numbers between 2020 and 2024. The American people are walking away in droves, fed up with identity politics, woke posturing, and policies that alienate the very voters Democrats need to survive.
As PJ Media previously reported, Democrats managed the remarkable feat of losing ground to Republicans in every single one of the 30 states that track voter registration by party. The GOP added about 4.5 million voters while Democrats bled support everywhere from deep blue enclaves to swing states to conservative strongholds. That kind of across-the-board movement isn’t just a bad cycle; it’s the beginning of a long-term realignment.
And it’s not just red America turning against them.
The New York Times admitted the backslide was happening everywhere, even in battleground states. For the first time since 2018, new voters are registering more frequently as Republicans than Democrats. The so-called “party of the people” is now losing ground among the demographics they’ve been counting on to guarantee political dominance forever. Men, young voters, Hispanic and black men — so many of them walked away in 2024 and pulled the lever for Donald Trump.

The numbers don’t lie. In must-win battleground states like Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania, Democrats have been steadily losing registered voters. These aren’t incidental losses; they’re hard evidence that swing state voters are increasingly hostile to Democratic messaging.
Democrats are turning into a bicoastal party with shrinking influence on the national map, while Republicans expand in the Sun Belt, the industrial Midwest, and beyond. The GOP is assembling its strongest coalition in decades, drawing in union workers, young voters, Hispanics, and black men once loyal to Democrats. While Republicans focus on jobs, inflation, and security, Democrats waste energy on pronouns, quotas, and climate panic, all of which alienate working families.
Which brings me back to the original point: Republicans should be thrilled to watch Democrats march down the same road that’s destroying them. Every public tantrum over “wokeness,” every lawmaker who parrots the latest activist slogan, every radical candidate who gets elevated to the national stage only alienates another swath of voters. The Left doesn’t seem capable of a course correction, and conservatives should hope it never figures it out. Because the longer it clings to woke dogma, the quicker America moves toward a conservative renaissance.
If the Democratic Party insists on being the voice of fringe activists instead of the American people, then we’re witnessing the opening chapters of a Republican golden age, one fueled not by gimmicks or empty slogans, but by common sense and the will of a people fed up with being ignored. And the Democrats will only have themselves to thank.
