#America Is Growing Apart, Possibly for Good
It seems unlikely that the Trump-era Republicans installing the #policy priorities of their preponderantly white and #Christian #coalition across the red states will be satisfied just setting the rules in the places now under their control. #Podhorzer, like #Mason and #Grumbach, believes that the #MAGA movement’s long-term goal is to tilt the electoral rules in enough states to make winning #Congress or the #WhiteHouse almost impossible for Democrats. Then, with support from the GOP-appointed majority on the Supreme Court, Republicans could impose red-state values and programs nationwide, even if most Americans oppose them. The “MAGA movement is not stopping at the borders of the states it already controls,” Podhorzer writes. “It seeks to conquer as much territory as possible by any means possible.”
