re: #94 Love-Child of Cassandra and Sisyphus
Places like Florida are swinging to the
reichright and it is important to know why.We can say there is a history of racism and that is true but that can’t explain the changes towards the know-nothing right.
Some of the appeal of the likes of DeSantis is simply down to age.
Sad truth: as we age we lose the ability to make sound choices.
Not all people, just some people.
It is easy to scare seniors.
The bright-but-evil funding the likes of DeSantis use this for their benefit.
The bottom line is money (which is a proxy for power, or it literally power.)
Florida repugs: 5.1 million
Florida dems: 5 million
Other parties: 0.25 million
Unaffiliated: 3.8 million
Maybe don’t count Florida out.
