It's has been suggested that the Left lacks 'introspection.' So let's introspect about recent events. This post is mainly for the right wingers, so @shavixmir and @sonhouse and @Suzianne you stay quiet!

Let's set the stage: it is 2028 and JD Vance is the presumptive nominee for the GOP. Trump has been in charge for 4 years - doing the same things he always does.

What sort of a Democratic candidate would you, the right wing, have to see in order to entice you away from Vance and *actually* vote Blue?
- What would they have to be/look like?
- What would they have to say?
- What would have to have happened in the intervening 4 years?

That’s all you do, make lunatic post and answer nothing, there’s something wrong with you. Do you have something, just curious?

I don't know what you see. Why don't you tell me?

So spin out the 'conservative values' item a bit. Give us a list.

Because what we've got here, apart from being Straight, is Pete Buttigieg. Every thing else fits, except for maybe those pesky 'conservative values', whatever they are. So enlighten us, please.

So what would it take for you to vote D in 2028? What kind of candidate? What would you have to see?

And don't just say, "a Republican" - that's too easy. Besides, there are many different kinds of Republicans.

Why don't you self-reflect and wonder why the majority of people in the US voted
Republican, what is it about you that makes you think you are on the proper side of
political realities? Why are so many people called names, why are so many insults
thrown at the right by the left, and why don't just topics get discussed? How is it
that the individual is never respected, they must always be lumped into some
group that is bashed for this indiscretion or that one, this flaw or that one?

To your first question, I'd be speculating. Your answer to that will be better than mine.

You mentioned name-calling, insults, and lack of individual respect directed at the right from the left. Is that a motivating factor for you to turn out and vote?
