  • The people on either side of this issues are just not taking into account the people who just literally DO NOT CARE about social issues. There’s a lot of them.

    They want hard facts and plans, which nobody on either side of the aisle seems to care to provide aside from a select.

    Here’s an example: take a redneck from the deep south who is a soybean farmer and ask him if he’d rather make money selling soybeans, or provide unisex bathrooms for trans people. He’s going to say make money BECAUSE THATS WHAT HE DOES FOR A LIVING.

    Now take that same person and ask them if they could make money selling soybeans, AND provide bathrooms for trans people. They will also agree.

    The dumbass non-centrist argument just assumes there are enough people sitting around with enough money and lifestyle security to care about both at the same time. It can be both if you frame it the right way, and not make rambling and polarizing wedge issues out of absolutely everything in people’s lives. This is possibly how Trump won.

    Stop with all this “reaching across the aisle is bad” bullshit, and actually get back to providing solutions to voter problems.
