Here's the thing. Myself and other moderate democrats can handle with Scotts' moderate GOP policies and some of us have actually voted for Scott. It seems to me that the GOP posters here on this site are not moderate are more like the Qanon type.
ReplyDeleteYes, that would be consistent with the Trump "hostile takeover" of the GOP. There are few moderates left among the Republican electorate, (most are Alt-Right nowdays) as evident by Trump's 87% approval rating with Republicans. What many do not realize is that's 87% of less than 30% of the population! Most moderates of BOTH parties have become independents, and now outnumber D's and R's COMBINED!
