It is time to close ranks and protect Blue areas [1]

With the passage of the big beautiful bill, I am sorry, but it is time for democrats up and down to close ranks and protect democratic areas. The GOP has chosen pain and suffering to pay for tax cuts for the rich. Democrats need to focus on making sure that pain is felt more in red areas than blue areas. That is the only thing that will influence the GOP elected officials.
If rural hospitals and clinics close, that was a result of this decision by the GOP. We have to protect services in the big cities. If community colleges start closing all over rural America so be it. This is what the GOP did. Democrats have to focus on mitigating the pain for democratic constituencies. I know it goes against the liberal nature of most of us who want to protect everyone and make sure everyone has what they need but that ship has sailed. The GOP is bringing suffering to America, and Democrats need to reduce that suffering in blue areas, which will increase the suffering in red areas. GOP politicians will not walk away from MAGA until the suffering hits home and they hear it from their constituents.
