Immigration is the only issue Trump won on in the polls. Even among Hispanics, those who said immigration policy is crucial were more likely to vote R than those who didn't. I can guarantee you that the average winnable voter doesn't care about Stephen Miller.
Unlike other states, where local communities directly benefit from the tax revenue created by a data center, under West Virginia’s law, half of a project’s revenue would go to reducing and “ultimately eliminating” the state’s personal income tax.
To undermine socialists, Bismarck, ironically, preemptively implemented some social welfare reforms. That playbook could be something to think about for Republicans. Especially those running in places like Virginia and other blue leaning states.
Winsome Sears did better than Mizusawa
My final predictions for Virginia:
US Senate
🔵Mark Warner 59.57%
🔴Bert Mizusawa - 40.43%
🔵Warner by 19.14
VA-1
🔵Shannon Taylor - 52.29%
🔴Rob Wittman - 47.71%
🔵Taylor by 4.58
VA-2
🔵Elaine Luria - 55.55%
🔴Jen Kiggans - 44.44%
🔵Luria by 11.11
VA-5
🔴John McGuire - 50.54%
🔵Tom Perriello - 49.46%
🔴McGuire by 1.08
Note: These are two-party percentages only. Some of these races feature independents or third-party candidates that will inevitably peel away a point or so.
Great picture
There’s nowhere to run. And the people best positioned to turn things around with money and influence are the biggest runners. They have a hunger to build, but not take. The takers are never satiated. And the builders are scared of the takers. There’s a disconnect in the wiring of the builders and the way society is set up in the modern world such that they can’t bring themselves to stand their ground and defend. But the takers, once they have taken, don’t stop. They never have to play defense because they never stop playing offense.
This is what conservatism is, liberals that play defense for eternity. The right must play offense. It must want more. It must be progressive. This idea has been beaten to death amongst the intellectual right, but intellectuals aren’t doers. The doers have to get the message. Unfortunately the doers are stupid. A wonderful coalition of ineffectuals and retards.
You shouldn’t take this as dooming. The right has all the real strength but not the will. The right is a giant elephant tied to a flimsy rope and post.
I wouldn’t be surprised if East Antarctica fauna was more Australia-like, while West Antarctica was more South America-like.
