I think that even the most brainwashed Republicans are starting to realize that basic duties of their state’s government are being neglected in favor of attacking people that they frankly don’t even see
Yea, some of my childhood friends have staunchly conservative parents… one of those friends is gay. Conservatives are fine (apparently) with attacking “the other” but when your antiwoke campaign broadens to include family members then your voters suddenly remember what empathy is.
It’s fucking ridiculous that if DeSantis had stuck purely to antitrans rhetoric he’d probably be quite popular still because, sadly, most Trans people are invisible to their conservative family members… but when the net gets too wide suddenly DeSantis starts attacking people conservatives like and that causes higher attrition.
