I think this will probably further embolden the Left. Strange that this happened in a state that isn't a coastal blue state. How will Nevadans react:
I don't have a problem with Democratic socialism, since we've pretty much had that for a long time in this country to varying degrees. My problem is with woke progressives and the nonsense they are peddling these days like banning books and defunding police. I realize that "woke progressives" and "Democratic Socialists" may in many cases be the same people in this country, so I mention them with distinction here because there's no reason they have to be. A democratic socialist can easily exist without all the woke progressive garbage. So I don't want to speak of the two as if they are the same. But I have a feeling, in this case, they are the same. So I say good on those Democrats who quit so that they didn't have to help spread progressive nonsense. Hopefully this is another wake-up call to the moderates on the left that their political party is rapidly being taken over by people who have no connection with reality any longer.
Joe Manchin is a moderate I think and his party hates him. If you are not on the far left radical bandwagon you get treated like crap. That's why many left and became members of #WalkAway to express why they could no longer be a part of the Democratic party. 2 Democrats quit in Minnesota a month or two ago and another one just quit in Illinoise. He was a house representative and quit because after 25 years as house speaker for Illinoise the Democrats decided they wanted a black person and did not support him. He lost, resigned and his replacement quit after only 3 days of working. The Democrats are pushing away alot of people. Next will be the oil and fracking industries.
All I can say is that Nevada Republicans must have really screwed up in the past for Nevada to have turned Blue. Must have been a lot of corruption in the Republican Party to turn that many people off, because when I lived in that area 20 years ago, it was absolutely a Red leaning State.
