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
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"
You like Huey Long?
My favourite politician is an outright socialist
Democratic Socialism = National Socialism <:trueconservative:423311896356061186>
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.
"Nazis are Leftists"
The GOP just need to make it clear that they won't cut funding for Social Security, Medicare, and Education
"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."
-Huey Long
Ok fair I'll give you that Flanon
You like him for his methods, not his ideology
The problem is you keep having retards like Paul Ryan who want to do that
