looks like he's trying to pander in regards to the shithole comments
not really anyone with more name recognition than the governor, he's a bit of an immigration pushover though
hopefully he'd fall in line if Trump tells him to
Scott is good at balancing his approach with Trump
in a swing state, you can't embrace him but you can't distance yourself from him either
trying to make this senate list, get to california, then get completely stumped
everyone running doesn't even have a wikipedia page
that's the thing
most of them aren't going to be important enough
now, there's still quite a long time until the primaries
I wouldn't be surprised if we find out about more celebrity candidates
I know it's basically suicide in that state, but it's so damn big is the thing
I heard Caitlyn Jenner is running for the GOP here
you'd think there'd be someone, like a James Woods or something that'd put their hat in the ring
s/he's still under potential candidates is the thing
I'll put him in then just to have someone I guess

But there's virtually no way a non-Democrat is winning here in the Senate
it's possible that Feinstein gets primaried tho
@🎃Boo-ton🎃 you live in Cali ?
yep
there's virtually no way, but that doesn't mean there's absolutely no way
LOT of vulnerable districts this season
5-10 districts could be lost here alone
if that happens, hopefully we make up for it by picking up seats in the rust belt
and areas in the midwest / south that are held by weak Democrat incumbents
this is why we need strict federal voter ID, the stuff people can get away with in cali's voting system is insane
what area of California do you live in ? Here in NYC there are quite a few Trump supporters if you look for them, but they're just drowned out by the rest
from what I can tell, many Democrat voters aren't even the "reeee" type
they're just used to voting for the D candidate because they're minorities who've been doing that for decades
what's it like politically over there in California ?
over here, the 'reeeee' types tend to be white transplants
it's like that a lot up in New England, lot of union type voting for Ds
hopefully one of these days if the GOP ends up being more like a worker's party like Trump's trying to make it, there'll be a few flips
I wonder how many voters Trump could have flipped if he campaigned in and targeted certain demographics in New England, the urban northeast, college students, the west coast, other blue areas
I live in Orange county
this used to be a Republican stronghold
it might not have been worth the effort, but it's definitely possible to flip voters from D to R
Thoughts on Austin Petersen running for MO Senate?
