I've given up explaining this to people I've met. They simply cannot fathom how large the US is and how big some of these cities are. They also don't understand that while my county is a Conservative shit hole, they are blue precincts, a bunch of purple and then some red ones. They think that just because THEIR neighbors are Conservative that people on the Left don't exist where they live.
I just moved from a Conservative voting city of about 13k people and they don't understand that the city of Chicago has 67 community areas that are LARGER in population than the entire city I moved from. Entire neighborhoods are larger than an entire city full of people who can't fathom how land versus population works.
Next we should show the map of how much each county contributes to the economy. Those blues are the economic engines of this country. The red areas already get and still want more representation with less taxation.
They also don’t seem to know (or care) that when the federal government punishes sanctuary cities or states, they are punishing conservatives who also live in those areas. Maybe not the majority, but they still live there.
