Problem: the changes Sanders and AOC suggest don't go nearly far enough (and occasionally go in the wrong direction).

To respond to the "Saunders/AOC sweeping changes." I can understand with the loses in the House, and with a tepid victory from Biden, that it would seem that would be the case.

However.

Every single progressive was re-elected.

It's the corporate middle of the road Dems that lost.

America is ready for these changes.

A heartfelt plea for coastal Democrats to move to the heartland. | MOVE TO WISCONSIN! WEATHER’S GREAT! | image tagged in meanwhile in wisconsin,wisconsin,democrats,democrat,democracy,electoral college | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
I have to disagree somewhat, I think these election results show that the country is a more deeply conservative place than I imagined it to be. To my chagrin, but it is what it is.

Part of that is the undue influence that rural, deeply conservative areas retain in our democracy thanks to the Electoral College and the Senate.

But that also doesn’t explain why 72+ million Americans pulled the lever for Trump. Trump and down-ballot Republicans outperformed the polls and that is pretty worrisome given how gruesomely his Administration performed. Only slightly less than 50% of voters are so deeply conservative that they just don’t care, or they’re so susceptible to right-wing propaganda that it doesn’t really matter what their values are.

That said, all that could be overcome and progressive policies could be enacted nationwide if coastal Democrats got off their asses and

Moved.

To.

The.

Heartland.

Since this unbalanced political system that gives Republicans an unfair advantage will never be reformed while Republicans have the ability to stop it, Democrats who really care about this must pick up and vote with their feet.

Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Texas: These places have great livable metro areas and cost of living is cheap!

Exactly what Cher Horowitz would say if she went to the dark side, and with a flip of the hair, too.

It's a real shame, because I know plenty of real life righties, who actually give decent arguments, respect the others opinion, and (most importantly) give evidence to support their claims. Not to forget that they don't god worship Trump
