And Wisconsin! Hoping it turns more blue than purple. At least Tammy prevailed as Senator over the carpetbagger who was trying to pay his way in there.

What happened to Nevada? It went for the orange toad.

Lots of Latinos here and we got hit probably the worst economically during COVID when the Strip literally shut down. Houses are expensive here - way beyond many people's reach. Outside of Vegas and Reno, it's all redneck here.

How do you connect with the willful ignorant people in this country? We have a very big problem with fashionable stupidity. With hostility over knowledge. The undereducated misogynistic bigots have way too much power. How did that happen?

Well, first you have to have average IQ. You can't fault people if they truly aren't in the intellectual herd. The smarter ones will only change (if at all) when they think it's beneficial to them. Either they are embarrassed by their ignorance or they need to be smarter to live life the way they want to. I see no motivation for them right now. If you can walk around with an adult diaper with Trump's picture on it, wear a maxi pad on your ear with a garbage bag and no one commits you to a psych ward, then why change? We have so lowered our standards of adult, reasonable behavior in this country that anything goes, pretty much. The best thing we can do, is educate our children/grandchildren on the important of civic knowledge, do what you can to not turn out little KKKers, or misogynists. Be the role model for them. Racists and misogynists aren't born, they're made. I bet that 90% of them have a parent or close relative that thinks just like they do. They hear this as children. They watch how dad treats their mom and how he talks about women.
