To demonstrate that you're in the "in group", it is not enough to simply support most of what they are into. You must take a potentially expensive position that demonstrates your absolute support.

That's exactly what you're doing with your own rhetoric, you know.

No, I definitely don't know that.

My "rhetoric" about the issue which Donald J. Trump spent something like 1/4 of his ad spend on. I didn't pick it to sound extreme. I picked it because it was very important to how politics will play out for the next 4 years.

If you don't like what Trump does now, you can thank Kamala's attempts to ingratiate herself to trans activists back in 2019.
