Simply on my side of a suburban block in Miami

One is a 53 year old Republican woman who is disgusted with Trump

But her neighbors are QAnon types who rant that CNN tells nothing but lies.

I've gotten to know many more neighbors during the pandemic, and the new neighborhood tradition of late afternoon family walks

This is one of the most conservative groups in Florida.

I guess Trump's rhetoric finally broke through. There were too many "murderers and rapists" comments for Latinx people to ignore.

Killing pre-existing condition protections
Tax hikes for the little people, tax cuts for billionaires
De-funding Social Security
COVID COVID COVID.

At some point it becomes impossible to ignore physical reality.

Too much unchecked brainwashing regarding socialism. But it is easy to find exceptions who have some clarity and will vote for Biden. It's more 60-40 range than 80-20
