Mostly because of the 1979 revolution

I hate everyone

"Trump did better than Gillespie because Hillary was on the ballot"

prove it

🆙 | **Red Storm (in NYC) leveled up!**

@Deleted User Northam wasn't that liberal

@Deleted User That statement is true for Rust Belt states

Like Wisconsin

But I dunno about vA

He said that he oppose santuary cities

he lied :)

He was of course liying but still

LOL

yeah I know

Ya'll got beaned

At least Virginians

anyway, it's obvious that Trump generates the kind of turnout that someone like Gillespie (or Button Mash) can't get

Northam is the most progressive Virginia can really get

@Deleted User ooof

I liked that xD

Virginia is still a somewhat sane state

Its because Trump ran as a Populist not a Conservative

They aren't going to elect Jerry Brown's twin brother

Kevin de de de leon

He took relatively moderate stances on Economic issues and focused on culteral issues

If Gillespie talked about taxes more

@Walter Johnson Ben Shapiro did a whole segment on how trump isn't a populist a while back

He might have won over NoVA votes

"populism isn't an ideology, it's a strategy"

By populist I mean Right on cultural isses, and moderate on economic issues

Like George Wallace or Huey long

Huey long was like

Far left on economics

Maybe by 1930s standards

yeah or Hitler

I thought he advocated for a UBI

Huey Long

Hitler, Trump and Obama. All Leftist Authoritarians. <:trueconservative:423311896356061186>

not sure

I like him though

Hitler was actually more right wing on economics than people think.

At least than other "socialists"
