4. We need to watch this space closely. I know people won't like it but this is an area where I think the voters

on both sides can agree and work together to fight. I can't stand putrid MAGAt's anymore than most of you. This conservative group is self admittedly part of the embryonic MAGA stage which makes it even more suspect and needs to be countered with a unifying message from us. They're going to use this I'm telling you.

IMO, If we we want to make any kind of in roads back into the rural small town space this is one we can work on, mainly with right leaning Independents and center right republicans. I don't care what anyone says, at some point we are going to have to swing into these independent right leaning and center right republican voters hard in order to save our country. I'm not talking about the fully brainwashed racists, screw them, they need to be sent back into their own dark corner (they will never go away)

A move like this in the OP is a strategic move by the greater repuke party to keep ahold of the "leftist elite" BS they've been puking out for most of this century. If we aren't careful they will figure out how to side step it, BS it and lay it at the Democrats feet, trust me. There's already seeds being planted in the SM space by right wing actors on the repuke machines behalf.

I'm not saying embrace them but I am saying this an issue that will feed right into the affordability issue overall that these slick tonged snake oil salesmen on the far right will try and out maneuver us. There is BIG BIG money in this data center space and local politics on BOTH SIDES are susceptible to massive corruption. If these guys get a hold of some specific ones with Democrats selling out they will use their giant magafone to yell it loud.

The chess game of 2028 has started and the first pawn has been moved, IMHO
