Sorry, Im tapping out. Fuck this country. We are struggling to get a majority in the House. That disgusting human beings like Scott and worse, DeSantis, look to hold out to win despite being overtly racist, is just one example.
We are seriously at significant risk of republicans holding onto it all despite everything they have done.
Just breaking my heart but Im done. Ill watch and listen but I disappointed that it should be this closecand this hard.
Seriously, fuck republicans and anyone that votes for them.

(8,699 posts)That republicans came out strong in support of trump -despite everything trump has said and done - and we still did not have nearly enough Democrats and independents to actually FUCKING VOTE!!
This is pathetic. With so much on the line, we still cant get voters out to vote.

One is blue - progressive, urban, multi-cultural.
Increasingly hostile toward each other.

(3,145 posts)Too many retirees and too much military combined with just plain good ol boys.
1. Retirees don't give a fuck that Ron DeSantis is a white supremacist ultra-Trumper dickhead. As long as DeSantis leaves theirs alone and keeps those taxes low they'll happily keep filling in the oval next to his name.
2. Military leans heavily Republican to begin with and there is a ginormous military presence in North Florida from Pensacola to Jax which along with the gaggles of military retirees in the panhandle helps keep the area cherry red, skewing the statewide vote.
