"but most people can relate"

yes, myself included

Plus he always gives his justification for leaving the Democratic party as witnessing the birth of modern identity politics. This is relatable to how people feel from GamerGate, Bernie being screwed, etc.

Pushing an image of him as a classical liberal disgusted by modern race politics would do well on social media with younger people I reckon.

@Kernes yeah, come to think of it. I want a Kevin Nicholson running in every state

and every district

at least the traditionally blue areas

@Deleted User I dont know how well it'll appeal to women and boomers though, obviously

but still the best online narrative to push

The main thing isn't that he's an ex-Democrat, so much as the fact there's reason to doubt he's honest about being a Republican.

@Nuke I can see that being an issue to boomers, but not anyone else. It's helpful he's an outsider too, because the WI GOP is dirty. I expect there's plenty of shifty shit to pin on Vulkmir from her time in state senate.

alright

I don't like infighting over this sort of thing

I'll support Nicholson if he wins the nomination; you'll support Vukmir if she wins.

Tammy Baldwin has to go.

agreed.

@zakattack04 yikes

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 yeah I know, We won Wisconsin by luck

Was pure luck because the democrats stayed home

And Trump turned out basically all their republicans left in the state lol

But he did get less votes than Romney :/

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 Wow I've finally learned about the Democrats' stupid "drumpf is a vote suppressor who won through low turnout less votes than Romney" bullshit

thanks

it's not necessarily pure luck because part of the Trump campaign's message helped drive down turnout for Hillary @zakattack04

how

pushing the fact that she's an establishment shill who screwed Bernie over, for one

yeah but they won't make the same mistake again.

it's still luck

it's not a mistake though 😃

that's a jewish face if i've ever seen one

She’s gay as well I think

Indeed. She is a lesbian atheist.

"The nervousness stems from flashbacks to that 2016 loss and to the belief that Baldwin will again emerge as a top target for late outside spending. Russ Feingold, the former Democratic senator who ran for his old seat in 2016, led Johnson by nearly double digits before a spectacular collapse in the final weeks of the race, triggered in part by a massive influx of conservative dollars. Democrats responded much too late."

I don't think it was "conservative dollars" as much as it was Trump's coattails

100% agree.
