Both WA parties are dragging us through their identity crises

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : I'm not entirely sure, but one of the underdiscussed Trump breakthroughs is that he has long pledged to protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
39% : Both got about 200,000 more votes than MAGA headliner Trump did in Washington.
36% : I don't trust him to stick to that -- he didn't last time, when his Obamacare repeal efforts would have slashed Medicaid.
34% : That's an exaggerated blue-state version of what happened nationally, where exit polls showed women voted against Trump by 8 points while men backed him by 13 -- just enough for him to squeak out a 1.6% margin in the popular vote.
29% : Trump won the election by expanding his gains with male voters, but also by, crucially, limiting his losses with women.
