    Michigan, a state I had wrote off as doomed to fall into maga hell before the midterms but got its first dem majority in 38 years, passed sensible gun reform that will require cops to remove guns from homocide risk individuals or loose their job, expanded the civil rights act to include LGBTQA, repealed the abortion ban, and ended right to work ALL ON THE SAME FUCKING DAY THIS WEEK. All of which has major support from the voters from what I can tell.

        Me too, I think the midwestern states have realized they have an opportunity and are taking it. In Michigan The MSU shooting and the insanity of the right leaning candidates and neighbors of most people seems to have finally broken the camels back in the state (also the bast amount of COVID deaths being from republican areas in the state didn’t hurt either).

        Like look up the republican governor candidate who was hand picked by Trump she’s hilariously crazy.

        Edit: I should also mention that a huge chunk of the Michigan DNC is now composed of/heavily influenced by what in the US political compass would be considered left wing orgs who have done a great job of organizing, protesting, but then also working within the party when the time calls for it to secure changes and security.

          It’s most likely that the republicans have been too overtly gleeful about making life worse for their base, and it backfired for now.

          It’s why everything with the GOP is about attacking trans people. As they are an easy target.

      It might have something to do with the huge population of Islamic immigrants pushing Michigan’s voting demographics in a progressive direction.

      Thank you based Michigan. At the risk of my liberal soft spot for electoralism showing, finally dems at least attempt to govern, attempt to keep their promises. California dems are complacent as shit, and they do fucking nothing. Look at the high speed rail, this can’t be just that the US is magically cursed to have every HSR project fail, considering that the US invented it IIRC. Since they’re in no rush, they’re taking their sweet time and all it does is federally give the GOP more and more ammo. Not to mention Biden spending most of his term twiddling his thumbs because everyone went back to brunch.

      Thank you Michigan, when balkanization comes, may you prosper.
