Come out. I think the push back is real by the greater majority. I would point to all the special elections, the 2020 election and the midterms which have favored the Dems. The RW best elections are all behind them. Also, tfg is really losing his sway. He called for violence in NYC and Miami when he indicted, a handful of ppl showed up. NYC one would expect that outcome, he’s hated there, but Miami, that’s the lair’s nest

Is this a rough ride right now, yes. We’ve seen times like this before. When tfg is resoundingly defeated in ‘24 I think there will be a shift, but it’s going to take another decade for gen Z and the millennials to really restructure voting with huge shifts to the left.
