All performative. MNGOP has been ineffectual and effectively out of power for 30+ years.
Performative in MN, but in locations more sympathetic to the GOP agenda is it a beacon of inspiration and blueprint for legalized oppression?
Perhaps. But it won't be a success story here. Minnesota has odd politics. We're quite progressive for the US and extremely oddly progressive for the Midwest/Great Plains. Even our dyed in the wool conservatives are fairly libertarian (actual definition, focused on personal freedoms) in their beliefs.
Of course we still have our share of hateful and misinformed people, but this tack isn't going to be very popular here.
It's one of the reasons it's in my top 2 places to live within the next couple years.
Well I was born and raised here, so I'm very biased, but I love it. Nature is everywhere, we have a ton of true wilderness, and people are generally very polite and kind. Lots of different cultures in the melting pot and fun cities/towns big and small.
Add onto that our politics (in the metro area especially) and it's hard to beat.
I moved to MN about a year ago. Its a good choice
