2018-05-07 00:11:43 UTC

2018-05-07 00:11:50 UTC  

Ya'll got beaned

2018-05-07 00:11:55 UTC  

At least Virginians

2018-05-07 00:11:57 UTC  

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

2018-05-07 00:12:05 UTC  

Northam is the most progressive Virginia can really get

2018-05-07 00:12:23 UTC  
2018-05-07 00:12:25 UTC  

I liked that xD

2018-05-07 00:12:42 UTC  

Virginia is still a somewhat sane state

2018-05-07 00:12:43 UTC  

Its because Trump ran as a Populist not a Conservative

2018-05-07 00:12:58 UTC  

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

2018-05-07 00:13:11 UTC  

Kevin de de de leon

2018-05-07 00:13:19 UTC  

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

2018-05-07 00:13:37 UTC  

If Gillespie talked about taxes more

2018-05-07 00:13:39 UTC  

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

2018-05-07 00:13:48 UTC  

He might have won over NoVA votes

2018-05-07 00:13:53 UTC  

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

2018-05-07 00:14:55 UTC  

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

2018-05-07 00:15:06 UTC  

Like George Wallace or Huey long

2018-05-07 00:15:16 UTC  

Huey long was like

2018-05-07 00:15:19 UTC  

Far left on economics

2018-05-07 00:15:38 UTC  

Maybe by 1930s standards

2018-05-07 00:15:44 UTC  

yeah or Hitler

2018-05-07 00:16:00 UTC  

I thought he advocated for a UBI

2018-05-07 00:16:04 UTC  

Huey Long

2018-05-07 00:16:14 UTC  

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

2018-05-07 00:16:14 UTC  

not sure

2018-05-07 00:16:20 UTC  

I like him though

2018-05-07 00:16:24 UTC  

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

2018-05-07 00:16:28 UTC  

At least than other "socialists"

2018-05-07 00:16:36 UTC  

You like Huey Long?

2018-05-07 00:16:53 UTC  

My favourite politician is an outright socialist

2018-05-07 00:16:56 UTC  

Democratic Socialism = National Socialism <:trueconservative:423311896356061186>

2018-05-07 00:17:10 UTC  

Yeah, regardless of his economic stances, the way he campaigned is the sort of feeling we must capture, he was a real dude, you know.

2018-05-07 00:17:18 UTC  

"Nazis are Leftists"

2018-05-07 00:18:08 UTC  

The GOP just need to make it clear that they won't cut funding for Social Security, Medicare, and Education

2018-05-07 00:18:09 UTC  

"They say they don't like my methods. Well, I don't like them either. I really don't like to have to do things the way I do. I'd much rather get up before the legislature and say, 'Now this is a good law and it's for the benefit of the people, and I'd like you to vote for it in the interest of the public welfare.' Only I know that laws ain't made that way. You've got to fight fire with fire."
