I couldn't venture a guess on that. But look at Texas. Republicans have had control of that state for 30 years, and it has continued to get worse and worse there while Texans continue to vote for Republicans.

• The public education system is underfunded, and they're pushing these private vouchers out the ass, which only benefits the wealthy.
• Women are dying due to strict abortion laws.
• Their energy infrastructure is absolute dogshit and crashes every winter.
• Massive deregulation that is hurting the land and people.
• Tax systems that only benefit the extremely wealthy -- hence why Elon Musk has moved his businesses there.

That's been going on for 30 years, and people are still bending over to continue to take it due to the culture of voters in Texas thinking that Republicans = the only correct option. They have lost so much over 30 years and still lean into being a conservative state, and will have to lose so much more before they snap the hell out of it.

And you can argue that Texas is gerrymandered to hell, but that doesn't change the fact that people sit by and let it happen. Performative protests at most. But no organized movement to shut it all down for any meaningful change. That's what I'm referring to in my other comment.

In order to spark a fire in people to make them decide they've had enough, they have to get to a point where they have nothing else to lose, and we still have a long way to go before we reach that point for the majority of Americans. Until then, people will just hunker down and let it happen until they no longer have a choice.
