THIRD WAY WON'T WORK
Trump appeals to uncouth stranger-haters.
Dems shout: "We bomb Brown babies too, and tripled ICE budgets!" But MAGA will never vote Dem because Dems are strangers.
Dems get elected by appealing to their base of urbane peaceniks, not by chasing MAGA who will always hate them.

The nursing facility I'm in hired a new CNA 5 weeks ago. She works on a different wing than where my room is. She's nice & friendly.
Come to find out she's also an anti-masker & an antivaxer.
We're in the middle of a flu outbreak. She refused to mask up which is mandatory.
She's been fired 👋🏼
