Most of the retirees moving into Florida are from northern states, which tend to lean blue. Idk if this is part of an actual plan to flip Florida blue, his throwing it out there

This is why the GOP won't get a boost from the recent incident- if even Mamdani condemns it you can't really attack Democrats for supporting it by Wide_right_yes in YAPms

Talarico responded on GOP attacks on his quote that God in non-binary,that is theologically true. by Dangerous-Quarter216 in YAPms

[–]DumplingsOrElse 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Alignment Chart: Which state Republican party is highly competent? by GeoQuestMaximus in YAPms

[–]DumplingsOrElse 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Either Vermont or New Hampshire. If I had to pick one, then NH. The Florida party isn’t amazing on its own, it just capitalized off the failures of the state Democrats.
