Explanation of just about everything in U.S. politics today

The starting point for explaining U.S. politics today are the demographic facts that whites have gone from 83% of the U.S. population in 1980 (79% if only non-Hispanic whites are counted), to 62% of the U.S. population in 2020 (58% if only non-Hispanic whites are counted), and that demographic projections are that non-Hispanic whites will become less than a majority of the U.S. population sometime between 2040 and 2050.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_racial_and_ethnic_demographics_of_the_United_States

It is submitted that these demographic facts and projections are extremely bothersome to tens of millions of American whites.

It is further submitted that the politics surrounding just about every big issue that is occupying the national political landscape is traceable to and best explained by the foregoing phenomenon of the aforesaid demographic facts and projections being extremely bothersome for tens of millions of American whites.
