Not all of them. You gotta talk to them about the nuance if you want that slightly right leaning person to eventually switch over to slightly left and vote accordingly.

Refusing to have the dialogue or pigeonholing them into a box with the worst of the worst only widens the divide. It doesnt lead to any meaningful change.

Yes, all of them, because everyone that votes for Republicans is voting for subordination of women etc.

By the way, I'm old enough to remember when US politics wasn't like this. There was a time when there were conservatives and liberals in both parties, and there was even an overlap where the most liberal Republicans were more liberal than the most conservative Democrats.

But there has been a realignment of the parties since then into much more starkly divided ideological camps, with most of the actual motion on a left-right political scale being the GOP galloping off to the hard right at a remarkable speed.
