- mmazing 5y agoColor me surprised. I really don't understand the whole "double down" approach to doing things.
- wonderwonder 5y agoyou wouldn't; neither would most of us on this site. ~50% of the population wouldn't. They are targeting the 50% + 1 of their state population that voted for this man. They are probably doing a pretty good job of it too.
