Re: Court hands Trump win in sanctuary city fight

2. Ideological disagreement, fair enough.
3. Look at his trans in the military ban, Pence, and the Indiana mafia’s control of HHS.
a. It's wise to ban a group from the military that self-proclaims suicide rates of 41%. This wedge issue impacted 0.0047% of the US population (there were an estimated 15,500 trans in US military at the time of the ban), IMO not worth risking socialism over it, which will affect the entire population.
b. I completely see how Pence is religion incarnate, but his ilk will never win a national election again. In 2024 you're more likely to see Nikki Haley, Ted Cruz, Dan Crenshaw, or Trump Jr win the R primary than Mike Pence. If they slip back towards religious authoritarianism, they will lose the center.
c. I've no idea what you mean, how does Indiana control Health and Human Services?
4. Urban (R)s will champion urban causes, and rural (D)s will champion rural causes. If elected Scherie Murray (R candidate for NY-14) will not be introducing farm subsidy bills, her platform is oriented towards bringing large businesses to NY. On the flip side, Elise Stefanik (R-NY-21) has a golden spike from NARP, and her challenger Tedra Cobb (D) has "Support farmers through commercial kitchens, food hubs, aggregation, and Farm-to-table and farm-to-school programs" as part of her platform.
6. The Democrats were sane when they did NJ's reform and allowed for judicial discretion. The very reason that was stripped out of the NY one was because of fears it would be influenced by racism, and even now the calls for reform are only saying "allow judicial discretion in a tightly controlled manner" which means it's not really discretion at all, and they're hoping the masses think they're doing something about it.
7. Voting is controlled by the States rather than the Federal government, and since as you say NY has made their improvements, I don't think the NY Rs would bother undoing them were they to regain state power (their big campaigns are on repealing the SAFE Act and bail reform). The main difference for me is, I value 2A rights over voter rights, so this issue which harms some Americans is cancelled out by the Democratic party's march towards infringing everyone's gun rights at the state *and* Federal level. Personally, I'd rather not have to wait a minimum 4 months for a pistol permit application to even be read, than be able to vote a few days early.
