This party wants nothing good for Ohio
Yes, and they are actively attempting to circumvent last November's voter referendums abortion rights and recreational marijuana.

There's a reason this hasn't hit the mainstream yet..but will soon.

All I can tell you is "business as usual", as we've known it, is dead.

Oh, and if you get the chance, feel free to look up Executive Order 13848, and take note it got extended in September...then ask yourself why
Another right-wing conspiracy theory?

Interesting. Do you find is strange the most overly educated elitest vote the same as the most uneducated poorest? Getting degrees often = indoctrination as in cultural marxism. Most that preach it, like Marx, don't believe in it. They use it to gain power. It's dialectic satanic garbage.

I'm not sure how anyone below the top 3% income bracket, not a religious fanatic or other brainwashed wingnut could vote against their own best interests. The GOP overall has zero empathy for the poor or middle class and it shows in their congressional voting record.

Detroit's issues are due to changes in American manufacturing in general and the auto industry in particular, not the result if having a Democratic city government. If that were the cause, how would you explain the fact that the nation's most prosperous and innovative states strongly trend Democratic?

No Detroit governance is identical to African governance. Has nothing to do with the auto industry. The smart people moved out. Some of the smart have moved back in recently.

You are ignoring the fact that most of the more prosperous and innovative states also trend Democratic.
Cities worldwide tend to be more liberal or left-leaning than the suburbs, smaller towns or especially the countryside. This is true in richer countries, poorer ones, or anywhere in between. The frictions and attractions of urban-life tend to produce a more outward-looking, change-oriented mindset.... the very opposite of veneration for tradition or repudiation of novelty.

The right-leaning party was traditionally (pun intended) the party of "establishment", of big-business, of the so-called insiders, who tended to benefit from the system and who oppose radical change, if not for doctrinal reasons, then for pecuniary ones. What's so strange in modern American politics is that this right-leaning party has cleft in two... the so-called mainstream Republicans, and MAGA. The latter may be culturally conservative, but it repudiates so many longstanding notions, such as a strong outward-looking American foreign policy, free trade, or deference to established authorities such as technical experts or professional politicians. MAGA is in many regards a radical leftist movement, seeking rapid and tumultuous change, by throwing the so-called bums out.

Disenchantment with the establishment is something that really resonates with middle-classes, and former middle-classes who feel squeezed and dispossessed. The relatively comfortable now regard themselves as uncomfortable, and vote for the so-called conservative party, which is being taken over by radicals.

Put another way, Ohio or Middle America overall, would not much embrace the Republican party of Romney, McCain or Papa Bush. But it is wholeheartedly embracing... whatever the Republican party has become.
