I guess there’s not much to this argument at this point between us. I hope you’re right, and I would assume some resistance, but do doubt it to be significant. The courts are captured, national dems are weak, and even when talking about the power of state dems I’ve not seen much strong and resilient push back. Lastly, national dems have quite a bit of power in state politics. Don’t doubt the ability of a crab to pull down it’s fellow crab in it’s own attempt to leave the bucket.
Thanks for the conversation. Though I’m a bit more pessimistic I can see you’re atleast a reasonable person
Don’t conflate national dems and state dem parties. The state dems are fighting back far stronger
Hell many are defying trump straight to his face such as Maine’s governor who told him in person that they’d not comply with his anti-trans stuff
Kathy Hochul is still enforcing NYC’s congestion pricing despite Trump directly telling her to stop and threatning federal funding
And so on
