@walterbays okay, but this CAN happen, that people suddenly realize what's happening and change their vote. The news coverage of Black abuse by law enforcement is widely credited with changing the tide of the civil rights movement in the 1960s and 70s. What will it take this time? I don't know. #politics
@CarmenSlamdiego I hope. Perhaps most likely to effect a major change is Dobbs. Because even conservative men generally love their wives, sisters, and daughters.
"It’s common among liberals to hope that some issue will finally make the scales fall from conservative eyes. Surely something will make them see that they are voting against their own economic self-interest. Surely something will make them realize that their leaders have been lying to them."
