This time, they claim that the \u201cRepublicans of color\u201d distort the American Dream. Of course, this is nothing new from the <em>Times<\/em>, as they continue their narrative that the GOP has no diversity in their party, but it seems like they are threatened now because of people like Congresswoman Mayra Flores (R-TX), Lieutenant Colonel Jennifer-Ruth Green (R-IN), and Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears (R-VA), who have recently won their races, and represent the GOP. Not only has the GOP diversity grown in Congress, but it is also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csmonitor.com\/USA\/Politics\/2022\/0602\/GOP-makes-gains-with-minorities.-Will-it-change-the-party\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">growing<\/a> among voters, as they have made gains with minorities.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>New York Times<\/em> is in the camp that thinks \u201cRepublicans of color\u201d should not be Republican. They still believe that minorities who support the GOP should not think for themselves and figure out which party better suits them; they should switch to the Democratic party. As we have seen, especially as of late, minorities are flocking the Democratic party because they are seeing the failures of the Biden administration regarding the economy, the southern border, and the Afghanistan debacle, among other shortcomings.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">My first Sunday A1 story is a look at the history and political evolution of a nearly 100-year-old idea weighted with meaning and memory. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/dVoSTK7OnT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/t.co\/dVoSTK7OnT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jazmine Ulloa (@jazmineulloa) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jazmineulloa\/status\/1561364811631366145?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">August 21, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>New York Times<\/em> reporter Jazmine Ulloa <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/08\/21\/us\/politics\/republicans-american-dream.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&amp;referringSource=articleShare\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cFor decades, politicians have used the phrase \u2018the American dream\u2019 to describe a promise of economic opportunity and upward mobility, of prosperity through hard work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, a new crop of Republican candidates and elected officials are using the phrase in a different way, invoking the same promise but arguing in speeches, ads and mailings that the American dream is dying or in danger, threatened by what they see as rampant crime, unchecked illegal immigration, burdensome government regulations and liberal social policies.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>She continued:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cBut historians and other scholars warn that some Republicans are distorting a defining American idea and turning it into an exclusionary political message \u2026 The Republican Party is using it as a dog whistle.
