According to the Pew Research Center, the middle class (with an annual income of $73,400) would no longer be dominant in today’s American society, which has suffered a slow but progressive decline over the past four decades. Thus, according to Pew, in 1971 the middle class represented 61% of the population (about 80 million inhabitants), while at present it would not reach 50% (49.9%) due to the subprime crisis, the explosion of the housing bubble and the stock market crash of 2008.
It should be noted that among the "crisis losers" appear for the first time, in addition to African Americans and Latinos, indebted university students and white adults over 45 years of age with jobs without university education and with low added value.
This segment of the population, once integrated into the unemployment lines, would be immersed in an explosive circle that produced depression, alcoholism, drug addiction and suicide, after seeing the "American dream" disappear. This would have had the side-effect of discouraging this segment of the white population from the establishment of Democrats and Republicans.
Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election will be a landmark, as it will be the beginning of the Orwellian government drinking from the sources of paternalism of soft dictatorships
Thus, according to a NBC survey, 54% of the white population would be "angry" with the system against 43% of Latinos and 33% of African-Americans, who continue to trust the American dream, which would lead white voters to defend politically wrong and refractory positions with the mandates of the traditional republican establishment.
This was symbolized by the support of white enturbs over the age of 45 for the neo-Nazi and white supremacist parties that control the areas of power of Trumpi and the "Deep America", reflected in the strong support for the candidature of former CCC leader David Duke.
Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential elections is a historic milestone as the beginning of the Orwellian government drinking from the sources of the paternalism of soft dictatorships.
This autocracy is characterized by the cult of the leader, the use of disinformation and control of the non-white population and political dissent and, de facto, by an invisible dictatorship based on sound cohesion strategies (mass manipulation and cult of the leader) and the return of White Power.
Thus, according to the Census Bureau EE.UU., by 2043 white people will not be the majority of the U.S. population and will travel by the sum of the Hispanic population, which today would rise from 53.3 million to 128.8 million in 2060, and African-American, which would go from the current 41.2 million to the 61.8 million projected in the projections.
