"We recognize that, in the next four years, our decision may cause us to have an even more difficult time. But we believe that this will give us a chance to recalibrate, and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not."

(7,392 posts)Christian nationalists were a minority of the right 30 years ago. But by holding true to their single issue, abortion, they gained more and more sway as they held the rest of the old right hostage. And if the right list elections
it was simply proof of their importance.
This is the same move on the left. Looking to cleave off enough support to effectively hold the left hostage to their demands.
The difference is that over the past 30 years, when the right lost because of Christian nationalist zealots, the country got Clinton and Obama so no loss for the country. The Christian nationalists didnt really pay a price since retribution isnt in dems playbook. Today, when religion splits the left
we get Trump and with Trump we get retribution that will very likely include these folks.
American doesnt benefit from their game but they got good PR behind them so well see if history repeats itself
this time in our side
to the great detriment of the entire country.
