Good for Chicago. We welcome their support and votes.

Not if the Republican has to change his platform to get and keep the votes.

I don't think that it is wise For a Republican who truly believes and professes righteousness in government to seek out and cater to people who still believe in "woke" philosophy for their votes. If they haven't yet understood that applying their beliefs produce the kind of consequences that they dislike, they won't respond--they'll resist.

The Republican candidate needs to stick to his/her precepts, and get solid popular support by insisting that those currently oppositional in voting, but displeased with the consequences, change their minds on what underlying principles should be.

When I first started the process of becoming a conservative years ago, I didn’t buy into everything the GOP establishment put out - I knew what liberals were saying wasn’t working for me.

The process was slow.

And it’s still true today. For example, I have reservations about spending money on the Ukraine war when our own borders are open to the world. Some Republicans don’t have a problem with that... So I’m still not totally ‘on board’.

These brave people in Chicago are starting the process one idea at a time - like most of us who were converts to our side did. I wish them well and welcome them to our party.
