Reposted by deMauriGrudgie the Wail @grudgie.bsky.social · 21/06/2026It is absolutely true that Dems need to win swing voters to win elections. The misdiagnosis is that swing voters are “moderates.” They are not. They have almost entirely incoherent politics. You don’t win them from the middle. You appeal to your base with conviction and hope swings like the vibes. 663937770
