Chapter 104: Decline in the United States

 Originally, Tangning was very happy because Mary was coming tomorrow.

"How long has it been since the United Whig Party lost another eastern state!"

However, when he saw a telegram from the United States, he was a little unhappy, but he also felt a little lucky for his previous decision.

"It's really a blessing that the western policy was right.

The United Whig Party, facing the Democratic and Republican parties with deep roots, really cannot shake them in the east. If it concentrates its development there, it will fail sooner or later.

The foundation of the Unified Whig Party is still in the West."

Tang Ning is aware of the power of the United States and has taken precautions against it.

In order to support his own political power in the United States, Downing chose the Whig Party, which was about to enter the garbage heap of history, reformed its party ideology, renamed it the United Whig Party and re-established it.

Before leaving the United States, the United Whig Party influenced by Downing was developing well, and its power expanded to 17 states in the east and west.

In the east, it controls two wealthy and sparsely populated states, Rhode Island and Delaware, and six less economically developed states, including Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Alabama, Mississippi, and Arkansas, for a total of eight states.
In the west, the United Whig Party won nine western states, Montana, Idaho, New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Oklahoma and California.

The reason why the United Whig Party was able to rise was not only to win over other small parties, but also because they followed the line of opposing excessive centralization of power, uniting ethnic minorities and winning over labor.

However, after the rise of the United Whig Party, it was wary and hostile to the Democratic Party and the Republican Party controlled by the Nazis, and launched an attack on him.

Faced with this situation, Tangning, in addition to finding ways to hold on to the eastern sphere of influence, decisively moved the center of Whig power to the west, where the Anglo-Saxons were weak and Latins, Indians, and East Asians gathered.

The United Whig Party has a general party headquarters and five branches.

The main party headquarters is in San Francisco, and the five branches are in Salt Lake City, Oklahoma, Seattle, and Los Angeles in the west, and five fulcrums are set up in Providence in the east. The overall political power is entrenched in the west.

This measure was effective. The political influence of the United Whig Party in the West was consolidated. None of the eight western states were lost. However, the eight eastern states' persistence in policy failed to succeed and six were lost.

Maine, Delaware and Vermont in the eastern and northern regions were re-elected by the Republican Party, while Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas in the eastern and southern region were re-elected by the Democratic Party.

Now in the east, the United Whig Party only has two small states, Rhode Island and New Hampshire, plus nine states in the west, leaving only eleven states on the political map.

The United Whig Party was able to keep Rhode Island and New Hampshire, largely because the proportion of Latinos in these two states was large and the Anglo-Saxons were not very powerful.

Rhode Island's ethnic ratio: 81.9% white, 8.7% Hispanic, 4.9% African American, 2.7% mixed race, 2.3% Asian American, 0.5% Native American.

The top five white ethnic groups in Rhode Island are Italian (19%), Irish (18.4%), British (12%), French (10.9%), and Portuguese (8.7%).

The ethnic ratio of New Hampshire is: 95.1% white, 1.7% Hispanic, 1.3% yellow, 0.7% black, 0.2% Indian, 1.1% mixed race.

The top five white ethnic groups in New Hampshire are: Irish (19.4%), English (18%), French (14.6%), French Canadians (10.6%), and Germans (8.6%).

In these two states, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Hispanic Americans have a high proportion of Latinos, while Irish Americans, who have great conflicts with British Americans, also account for about 18% to 19%.

The United Whig Party has three core party platforms: 1. Respect Latins, Indians, Orientals and other ethnic minorities; 2. Oppose excessive centralization of power and protect state rights; 3. Sympathize with labor and promote the establishment of a reasonable labor remuneration system.<

/p>

The first and second are implemented most thoroughly, and the third is used flexibly. The Whig Party protects workers, but in fact it is more superficial.

The United States has now entered the era of monopoly capitalism, and the living conditions of workers are very harsh. At this time, the Whig Party stood up and said that it would sympathize with and protect workers, but it actually had reservations.

Saying that it sympathizes with and protects labor, the United Whig Party is more likely to have a better relationship with the small workers' union parties.

The specific method of operation is that the United Whig Party shouted slogans for them in parliament, and introduced labor bills that were unrealistic and would not be passed. In fact, what they did was just a little better than what democracy and the republic had done.

From the 19th century to the early 20th century, there were many parties in the United States. Democracy and the Republic were the two absolute pillars. Other political groups included the Socialist Party and the American Labor Organization...

In this era, workers' social and political groups have emerged, but they have been violently suppressed. The United Whig Party's so-called sympathy for labor is to use them to win votes.

Tang Ning has no real intention to protect Americans, nor does she want to help the United States make up for its shortcomings.

He just wants to support a minority party headed by the Latin people, so as to occupy a place in American politics and hinder the control of the United States by the United States at a critical moment.

In fact, the Latins are not completely dominant in the West. The Unified Whig Party can only be said to be slightly stronger than the Democratic and Republican parties.

The Latin race is actually mainly distributed in the western New Mexico and California regions that Mexico ceded to the United States.

The six states separated from these two regions, including California, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado, are the solid territory of the unified Whig Party.

The Oregon region is divided into three states: Washington, Oregon, and Idaho, and the Louisiana region is divided into more than a dozen states, including Montana, Wyoming, and Oklahoma. The Latino race is not dominant at all.

In other words, the truly solid foundation of the United Whig Party is California, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and Arizona in the west, plus Rhode Island and New Hampshire in the east, a total of eight states.

These eight states, among the more than 40 states in the United States, occupy a small part of the political landscape.

However, the Whig Party did not only rely on Latins, Indians, East Asians, Mormons, etc. as important bases.

Montana, Idaho, and Oklahoma were not originally Latin territory, but the Unified Whig Party still held these three western states.

Montana, this western northern state, has the harshest climate in the United States. It is only a little better than the desert state of Nevada. It has a sparse population and not many votes. The Republican and Democratic parties do not pay attention to it. The United Whig Party won it.

, and operate it.

Idaho, Utah, which is close to the Mormon stronghold of Salt Lake City, has a large number of Christians here, so the Unified Whig Party can control it.

Oklahoma was originally an Indian reservation. There are many Indians here, as well as some Latinos who were squeezed out by Texas. It is simply a gathering place for ethnic minorities. The United Whig Party can win here.

That's natural.

The United Whig Party has more than 50,000 members, 50% are Latins, 20% are Indians, 20% are Asians such as Orientals, Japanese, and Koreans, and 20% are Irish, Greeks, Slavs, etc.

White people account for 10%.

It can be seen from this distribution that the United Whig Party is definitely a gathering place for ethnic minorities in the United States and is in a weak position in the American political landscape.

In the future, this party is expected to be limited to two states in the east and nine states in the west. It will be difficult to move forward.

However, being able to firmly control 11 states is considered enough for Tang Ning.

As long as the Unified Whig Party exists, it is dividing the unity of the United States. He can influence the United States through this party.

Even if one day this party escapes its control, its existence can still hold the United States back.

After reading the cable and analyzing the situation in the United States, Tangning picked up her OPPO lighter and burned it.

In this era of the United States, political forces are chaotic and intelligence capabilities are not perfect. This is the best era. The sooner we penetrate now, the better.
