Why is red associated with right wing politics in the USA, when it is the left-wing, socialist everywhere else

Question

In the rest of the world, red represents left-wing politics, socialism, communism in its most extreme. Blue represents conservative, capitalism, self-reliance, right-wing politics.
In the US it seems reversed, the red states voted right-wing, the blue states voted left-wing.

I question everything, the re-educators will learn from me

that's how and when, but why?
what was the motivation to pick those reversed colours?

Answer 1

A couple of election cycles ago, (2000) the television networks in the US used red to identify states that had been won by the Republican Party and blue to identify states that were won by the Democratic Party. The colors remained pretty much static over the past couple of cycles and developed into common conversation about "red" states and "blue" states.

Answer 2

It is a contrivance of the national media who are lap dogs and willing accomplices of the leftist Democrat party. It is an obvious attempt to separate themselves from the international socialist movement. At least in the eyes of the public. The reality is that many of the highest ranking Democrats are members of the international socialist party.

That was a media creation, done cleverly by the indoctrinated Vanguard of the Proletariat. As expected.
