    Yes I do think that still.  Fundraising numbers don't change my mind on it.  I'm saying this is not a growing % of the population that ascribe to nativism, it's shrinking.

    If that power is not in red states, it matters very little in US elections Despite bungling a deadly pandemic, trump came within a certified millimeter of winning the election and the GOP was a handful of seats of winning the House. Let’s go ahead and defund the police and hand law enforcement over to meter maids. That should help in the midterms.

    I don't know what we will learn in the mid terms at the House level.  I think we'll learn more with the senate seats and how those go, particularly with Trumpy people like Ron Johnson.  He hasn't said he will run yet, but if he were to win in Wisconsin, that would be ominous.  

    Here in VA, a female lunatic named Amanda Chase will likely get the GOP nod for R governor.  She will get walloped by most any democrat that ends up running.

    If 2018 and 2020 taught us anything, Lerx is correct. Yeah there are a bunch of racists in the republican party. But shouting "defund the police" at the top of your lungs is only going to help them rise to power again.

    It wasn't the far left who won the house, senate, and presidency over the last few years. You scream "defund the police" and you lose a portion of the moderate democrats and independents who brought that party to power....while also firing up the very racist base you want to defeat. 

    It's a fine line to walk, for sure.

    Got to agree about the term “defund the police.” It popular along a select group on the far left, not so much with the general public. Check out what Rep. Jim Clyburn thought of the phrase. Similar to what others are saying.

    I think the average moderate understands that there are problems with the way police act, particularly in how they relate to blacks. That said, I don’t think the average person understands that phrase and I think it scares them. I understand that “reform the police” sounds soft/pragmatic/slow but I think that is what would resonate. Ultimately, most of the people we need voting want continued police protection and that phrase scares them. It is frustrating to think about the long-haul that might be needed to improve policing in the United States and I hate the idea of telling black America to be patient while more of them are killed with impunity. But realistically, it’s the only possible path to improvement.  Scaring off moderate voters and making him a GQP the only party in power is going to be a disastrous results for everybody.

    If George Floyd isn’t murdered, we don’t really know what would have happened but I suspect the 2020 wave would have been much of bluer.
