We are beyond any hope that the Republicans will touch their Orange Jesus. Just keep referring to the Epstein Files and gas/grocery prices. Most people, especially conservatives, respond only to that which kicks them in the side of the head. Remind them every day that they are paying exorbitant prices for what they need to survive because the morbidly wealthy have unbounded greed. Logic and reason, voting for their own self-interest and not the interests of the oligarchs, do not impact the interior of the skulls of the average conservative. They have herd immunity against reasonableness and logical thoughts.
