I've been saying since before MAGA, that the Republican party will do one of two things in my lifetime:
1) achieve a fascist state or
2) disappear for trying to achieve a fascist state
I think we're at that precipice.
And "America first" as Nazi adjacent isn't new. Dr. Seuss saw it:
1) achieve a fascist state or
2) disappear for trying to achieve a fascist state
I think we're at that precipice.

Harris lost ground with basically every demographic except older white wealthy suburbanites.
You know the thing about older white wealthy suburbanites? They are basically the organisational core of every political party

A brief moment on election night last year when I thought Harris would win was when the results from Carmel, Indiana came out, quite early. Carmel is a rich suburb that is Mike Pence's home. It also turned out to be one of about five places where Harris outperformed Biden a bunch

Democrats won Senate seats last year in four states Donald Trump won, and came wildly close in a fifth. The marginal Trump voter who got him into office is a flake & maybe a loon. Whereas if you look at a state like Indiana, a lot of old-school Republicans who worked for the party have given up
