The problem with this is that these policies end up being very unpopular once enacted. And then the voters get rid of the party that put the policies in place. www.npr.org/2025/08/29/n...

These town halls are in deep red districts in deep red states (Alabama, Missouri, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Nebraska) throughout the US. And it's going to get much, much worse once consumer prices rise this fall and winter and more staff are laid off of work. It's only just started.

No good if they never get another chance for a meaningful vote.

But is it enough to completely destroy the right wing in this country? Is it enough to get the Overton window back to the center?

Eventually humanity will realize we are all in this crazy world together and it’d be way better to skip the wars and work towards creating a just and lasting peace with one another, stick with policies like these. It’s going to happen for humanity at some point.

Because they are not good at being a true opposition party. They lack the skills.
