36. While we hope these voters will come around, telling them they have to put up with whatever

is not the way to bring them in. i agree with Whitmer's point but Biden also has to listen and give these voters something to vote for. Lesser of 2 evils doesn't win elections.

Biden is taking steps, I'm just saying we need to understand that people whose famiies have been massacred they aren't going to just roll over.
