    Yeah, Trump was an NYC Democrat. I thought it was remarkable that he managed to legitimize himself to Republican voters.

      I think it’s nothing. They are a frustrated disoriented group. They’d take anyone.

      Maybe so are Dem voters who are excited about Harris, while a few years ago she was rather unpopular.

      I’ve never set foot in the new world, but maybe people should be excited about perspectives of a new major party coming to existence, since GOP is broken. While Harris is just better than Trump, no less and no more.

        If the GOP continue on the path they’re on eventually (hopefully) the Dems can win in a landslide and open up for another party to beat them. Right now we are still stuck with the two because potentially splitting the Dems is too much of a risk
