They went home. If a democrat fixes things as they have always done they will go right back. They have not had a change of heart only a change of income. They are temporarily embarrassed but puff them up enough and they will go right back. Look at Tucker Carlson , Joe Rogan and all the other paid influencers saying I’m so sorry I misled you. Horse crap as soon as they find another sugar daddy they will go back to their conservative bull. Donald Trump is an embarrassing lame duck. But I’m sure there is another in the wings. He has given them permission to be their worse selves but he didn’t tell them it comes with an economic price. Oh yeah the over performance has been the coalition, white men still white and the majority are still voting republican or conservadem like cuomo.
