Hello, it's me, a "middle of the road" voter who simply wants universal healthcare, higher taxes on the wealthy (including me) to expand social services for the poor & middle class, universal childcare, a higher minimum wage, expanded funding for the IRS, ending tax breaks for churches, allowing student loans to be discharged in bankruptcy, massively increased housing of all forms, eliminating single-family zoning, no parking minimums, removing housing subsidies including the mortgage interest deduction, guaranteed voter rights, a federal independent redistricting commission, ending the filibuster, expanded SCOTUS, impeaching Trump, justice for 1/6, a national program to fight white extremism, releasing the Epstein files, disbanding ICE and prosecuting its leadership and officers, police reform, ending qualified immunity, ending private prisons, massively increasing immigration, gun control to stop school shootings, reducing the military budget, accepting the reality of climate change, codifying vaccine requirements, supporting abortion rights and women's autonomy, stopping book bans, an end to woke identity politics such as anti-trans rhetoric from politicians, and a national council to assist with Trump’s daily struggles with flatulence
Let's take a look at some of the Texas voters that the
@nytimes just interviewed
This voter calls himself "down the middle" and "independent" and then, in the next sentence, admits he votes Republican "most of the time" [all of the time]
