The Democrats didn’t come and support Reagan in the primaries in any great numbers. Many supported him in the general election.

How do we get those people back? With a strong dose of Reaganesque conservatism.

How old were you when Reagan won the nomination the first time?

Which state did you live in?

Did you work on Reagan's campaign ?

Those people never went back to the democrats. Some 40% of Michigan union members already vote republican so they aren't anything new. The remaining union members are full on marxists and are completely useless.

The fact that union members only make up some 12% of the workforce here and around 3% of the total population. Pandering to that fraction is likely to cost more votes than it will gain.

We haven't forgotten the union trying to seize control of our constitutional amendment process. We haven't forgotten their ongoing demands that taxpayers support their "generous" pension programs. We haven't forgotten them leading the raise the wage protests for burger flippers.
