The political Revolving Door (County, Wisconsin) seems to have let Nazis in

As goes Door County Wisconsin so goes the Nation...

The Washington Post has another article on Door County. This makes sense because Door County is one of those things White People Like.

Anyway in the article about the swingin' nature of Door County (the previous one on this exact same topic was in June) has voted the last 6 elections for the Presidential winner.  But, like most Americans this 2024 election fells like a slog and they are just tired of politics.

Well... Voting for Republicans has consequences

While the people who live on the "Quiet" Side or the Party Side of the Peninsula tend to be more liberal south of Sturgeon Bay is farmland.  And like most of the large expanses of Wisconsin farmland its' peoples have been infected with the rabid reactionary virus of Republican fascism.

Now, much of the electoral defeats in Wisconsin have come down to rightwing ratfvcking of elections and obscene gerrymandering providing Republicans with statewide victories even when they lose the over all vote totals overwhelmingly.  Wisconsin voters have continuously pushed back against Republicans, which has just made Republicans turn to more outrageous non-democratic means of holding onto political power.

Since April, Robin Vos, who considers Wisconsin a solid Republican state when you simply exclude the voters of Milwaukee and Madison, has been engaged in the time-honored rightwing tradition of looking for post hoc justifications for his pre-planned Impeachment of Justice Protasiewicz because voters made the wrong choice and Justice Protasiewicz is going to undo the outrageous gerrymandered district drawn by Vos, Fitzgerald, Scott Walker and all the other anti-democratic goons ruining Wisconsin.

And with so many anti-democratic forces working in the state, it's not surprising a group of Neo-Nazis "The Blood Tribe" would feel free to march in Madison, (yes I know it's Dane County not Door).

As to The Washington Post article which relates the weary tales of various retired people, tavern owners, and small business people who long for a time when politics wasn't so fractious, divisive, partisan, and all-encompassing. I can only imagine these people blissfully ignored everything Republicans did to divide the Nation after George W. Bush's spectacular failure on 09/11/2001 (You're either with us or with the terrorists), never heard Republicans shout "You Lie" at President Barack Obama, never had Faux News on in the background of their favorite Supper Club, and are unaware Traitor Trump proclaims he will use the Government to lock up numerous people into Concentration Camps.

"Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you."
