The most difficult task for liberal wannabes will be ferreting out their Marxist influence. Communism has all but taken over liberalism, turning it into a Leninist progressive utopian movement. If these folk want to be American in any genuine sense they will have to let go of the communist influence that has driven liberalism for a century.
If they do not, well, they will be dismissed as of no significance to Americans and their movement to rebuild this nation on its founding principles.
I sure hope what you say is true, but don’t have any hope in that respect.
If they actively are looking at being a liberal democrat, they aren’t interested in America. They are interested in Marxism and Social Justice, both concepts that are alien to America.
i have often stated the rule of threes applies to liberals, the 2/3 of those who identify as liberal are unreachable, unapproachable, and unconvertible.
The last 1/3 contains a mix of good hearted people, ignorant people, and people who just don’t care. Of those, some of the good hearted people may be “converted”, and some of the ignorant people might be educated.
All in all, it is a small number. Of those 1/3, most who could be made non-liberal, it will happen naturally in a number of them as they get older, make their way in the world, and raise families. Others will actively “get mugged” and see the light.
