It's the lettuce that makes this one weird
Many people are don't mind supporting things that will hurt them--as long as they hurt someone else more.
Anything to make sure they're not bottom of the pile.
Also, "families can be deported together"... when Trump was talking about deporting citizens and people who are here legally, this is what the plan is.
If there's one illegal member of a family, the whole family may be deported.

Dems really miss out on a talking point that would help them connect with rural voters, who--even in the deepest red parts of Texas--HATE voucher programs. Because there aren't private options in rural areas, and they know their kids won't benefit. In some areas, there are already multiple counties sharing a single school.

Yes, the language that a lot of Republicans (notably Betsy DeVos) use is that it's unfair to the majority of kids to spend a bunch of money on a handful. I was confused when I first heard it, and then realized they meant we shouldn't spend any money on accommodations, much less special ed.
This goes hand in hand with voucher programs to undercut public education in general.
A lot of Latinos in the US think of themselves as white.
They're about to find out that's not how Trump and his people see them.
I think a lot of people are looking for specific high profile folks. That's the main thing I see when people talk about where they're going.
Some really good thoughts here.
Primarily that in every developed country in the world--incumbents have been losing elections this year. And that this is the first time this has ever happened.
This appears to be due to inflation and "post-pandemic malaise". And the incumbent party did better in the US than in most other countries.
The other major element is a "toxic information environment".

Love the art style.
