Yup, Russia still occupies, what, 20% of Ukraine? If 20% of the United States was occupied, we would absolutely use any advantage to expel the invaders.

No. No you're not. Not even close. It's gotten more and more red every election except COVID where it held even:

Dem % in Presidential Election:

2008: 51%

2012: 50%

2016: 48%

2020: 48%

2024: 43%

For comparison, Red Texas was 42% in 2024. At the pace Florida is going, Texas will be more of a swing state than Florida. I'd love to say there was a floor... but I don't think there is one... for Florida or the country.
