Yeah the actual political project here isn't to rehabilitate a bunch of Trump voters it's to tear Trump's coalition apart. And that doesn't mean adding a bunch of racist car dealership owners into our coalition it means demobilizing them as a political force

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
The "we need to welcome disgruntled Trump supporters" push needs to be understood not as outreach (90% of those spouting it won't ever do any) but as trying to find an excuse to ditch the people most in danger to appease conservatives.

This is a very real problem. It's a major reason we got here.
