That's what 'represent' means. It means you don't play favourites. It means you protect the rights of white supremacists, of far-right Republicans, of NRA members, of communists and of bigoted Christians in precisely the same way you protect the rights of your base.
I feel like I shouldn't have to explain this.

Nice try.
But you are wrong.
Let's talk about abortion.
Either it is legal, or it isn't. There's no halfway. Like pregnancy.
Joe has to pick one side or the other.
Somebody is not going to be represented.
Of course both sides can be represented. Being represented doesn't mean having things all your own way.
