Only Whites vote for the GOP, so it is the party of identity politics

Narcissistic and self-centered conservatives honestly believe that the Democrats, a party that wins the vote from every segment of the U.S. population, is somehow the party of identity politics. Meanwhile, the Republicans, a party that almost exclusively draws its votes from one racial demographic, is somehow the "normal" party.

To the GOP, women are viewed and treated as minorities.

Yes, a demographic that makes up more than half of the American population is a minority to Republicans.

That just about sums up their problem.

Because that is the group that makes up their entire leadership ... old angry white guys.

Angry old white guys with power deserve Viagra, the young women who won't sleep with them don't deserve the pill.

And it goes down hill from there.
