14. I should have clarified that "in general" applied to any Trump voter

Who is NOT diehard MAGA and may have voted for Biden in 2020 or Obama before that.

I'm talking about anyone who voted for Trump in 2024, but is capable of becoming part of the much needed Blue Wave in 2026 & 2028.

This includes black, hispanics, whites, independents ... anyone who can connect their current government-inflicted pain to the actions of the current administration.

Insulting them with clever retorts might provide some temporary satisfaction, but can't help our cause ... and can in fact hurt it.
