12. I'm in a red State and I'm seeing it turn purple
Sun Oct 12, 2025, 01:39 PM
Oct 12

What I've been hearing recently from people around here (my town is 90% R) are saying stuff
they never would have heard on FQX noise. One lady this morning referred to the $190
million dumpie made yesterday off bitcoins and asked me "Why would we want to replace
our monetary system with bitcoins?"

Believe Rs are getting more of their understanding of things from social media. Almost every
underhanded thing we read about on DU that this administration has done and are presently
doing, I'm hearing from total strangers in a town that voted 90% for dumpie. He's losing
his base.

Go ahead and start asking people you know and strangers "Think we'll ever see the Epstein
files?" Rs will not bite your head off with that question and surprise you with answers,
remember no one likes pedophiles.
