The Independents care about women’s autonomy over their own bodies (Dobbs), Social Security, investment in infrastructure and technology (bridges, roads, CHIPs Act), appointment of qualified judges, the Climate, diversity, inclusion, equal access and opportunity, sanity.
They are against white supremacy, traitors, insurrectionists, cads, the present make-up of the Supreme Court and their recent decisions and growing use of a shadow docket (
Shadow), support of autocrats and fascists, attempts to suppress the vote, election deniers (let Trump, Lake & Graham keep pushing that).
And, for the vocal dissenters and crybabies, “Libertarians” offer no solution, just a tight grip on their wallet. Zero leadership.
This was a vigorous rebuke of Trump, McCarthy, McConnell, Cruz, Dawley and Graham. DeSantis may rally the Right outside Florida but won’t capture the support of Independents.
The GOP is not presently a worthy opponent and for that reason alone, Democracy lost. Do better, GOP.
