On top of that, I'd say there's some nuance - nationally, you'll see Democrats reasoning with Republicans, targeting the non-maga conservatives.

However here on Lemmy, there are very few conservatives as well as a disproportionate number of third party folks, so you'll see a lot more discussion centered around third parties.
