(432 posts)This is a fantasy that many voters have.
I live in deep blue Massachusetts but we have a Republican governor. He's a pro-choice, pro-lgbt RINO style Republican dealing with a super majority Democratic congress. He can't hurt too much.
Larry Elder is NO RINO. He's an extreme far right radical - but voters will mistakenly believe he'll be limited by the Democratic super majorities. As the video shows - policy disasters will happen.
But far worse is how energized the MAGA CULT becomes. If they can take the governorship in a state where 65% of the voters went for Biden - what's next?!
