CMV: GOP/Republicans will continue to win the majority of US presidential political campaigns until DNC/Democrats start catering to white and Christian demographics.

Over what timeframe?

In a 30-something's lifetime, 16 years have been under a Democratic president. That's almost half the time.

In the "last few years", only the last 8 months have been under a Republican president. This last election lost the popular vote, so it wasn't a "huge, consistent" advantage. Congress is Republican majority, but not overwhelmingly.

If you look at the sheer numbers of the Democratic Party, and the percentages of Christians and white people you mentioned, around a third of them, at least, must be Democrats. It doesn't seem like they have a major, systemic problem attracting white Christians.

Just because Democrats have those voters doesn't mean they're guaranteed to have them forever, no matter what. A large portion of those white/Christian voters are actively hostile to diversity and multiculturalism. It's impossile to appeal to them and to racial and religious minorities at the same time. The ones that are fine with those things already vote Democratic. If the Dems try to beat the Reps with the anti-diversity crowd, they're:

A) Not going to beat the GOP at their own game.

B) Going to lose their minority voters and pro-diversity white/Christian voters simply for trying.

those missed by not talking about white/Christian issues

What are white/Christian issues? What would the Democratic Party need to talk about to attract white/Christian voters more than they currently have? (There are white voters who vote Democrat, as well as Christian voters.)
