    But there are all kinds of people, some are loyal Republican voters, some are just half-ass Republican voters, and these fucking ghouls have gerrymandered districts so hard, that their seats are often held up by razor thin margins so that they can have 60 seats with 40% of the vote and shit like that. It's a spectrum between left of center libs and right of center libs, and there are people who casually vote Republican, who are really distressed by the idea of breaking into congress.

    Again, it's not huge, most people keep voting for exactly the same dipshits every year, or nobody at all.

    But I'm saying the right-leaning "My god, Trump did treason" crowd is a whole fucking lot bigger than the "My house rep voted to give me medicare?? What the fuck, how dare they" crowd.

    Like its pretty much been shown that the world population of Blue Dogs is like a hundred guys, theres seriously zero public constituency for that. But then republicans occupy a much wider spectrum of belief.

      Exactly. The Dems can easily vote for M4A and tell their donors a different story, like Kamala did after cosponsoring M4A. I doubt it is possible for a Dem to lose votes in the general election over an M4A vote.
