That’s what any demographic shift does. Wealthy republicans carpetbag on occasion too, though not as often. The problems of red states can largely be overcome with personal wealth, so they tend to stay where they’re politically comfortable.
Another thing is that blue-staters tend to have more buying power than red-staters, so they get butthurt about being priced out of real estate instead of realizing that their relative poverty is the direct consequence of republican policy. 20 states still have a $7.25 minimum wage, guess which ones.
I mean we kinda do. I moved from a blue state to a red state and man; I didn’t realize how good I had it. Now I want to make things better here.
I have to imagine at least some republicans come to the same conclusion too.
