    I wish I had your optimism.

    All I see in our future is Mango Mussolini and the heritage foundation/federalist society running rampant completing their fascist theocracy…

    But hey, at least we taught Democrats a lesson…

      It’s a long time to the election, and the more he gets to speak the more 30% of the country loves him and 60% hates him. Fight for it, but have faith. Pro-Trump rhetoric anecdotally seems much, much lower than in 2020. Fewer bumper stickers and yard signs. But I live in Michigan where the party is broke and shattered.

      I think Dobbs actually broke the backs of centrist conservatives. Trump is running rightward to gain ever more crackpot voters for his base and I think there is a huge disillusioned middle.
