iTS NOT THAT HES A GREAT CANDIDATE for the D's of Montana. The party is pushing him because he got the san fransico big money behind him.I appreciate your respect and I return the same.
I believe you are isolating select points - extremely oversimplifying people's reasons for voting as we did.
There was MUCH more than Quist was an idiot (That I voted for). Same as there is MUCH more than Busse is a Democrat. The main content shared was NOT that Busse was a Democrat - the tribalism is NOT the issue with Busse - it is Busse himself!
I can quote numerous member comments that do not comment about him as a democrat, rather his receipt of Gifford campaign $, his role as the Senior Advisor to the most powerful Anti 2A organization in America. Giffords is a smart and well spoken person and to have roots that show a success for one of the MOST heavily armed citizen States in the U.S. to vote in the Senior Advisor of Giffords???
Giffords is the start - then there IS the Democrat platform. His embellished book shitting on his own county as racist because he brought his children to a children promoted (by their Adult parents) Black Lives Matter protest and was surprised his children experienced the settings he, IMO, embellished! There were credible threats made to deface our statues we have in our park, etc... I could go on and on though his book SOLD to liberal anti 2A thinkers and myself though halted my reading after he shit on my county for sake of selling books! - thus promoting his Giffords stature!
Montana elects Giffords Senior Advisor as Governor? Not a chance in hell! In that sentence, zero mention of Democrat. In this sentence - yes, Democrats thought this was the best person to push their agenda/platform?
Democrat leadership need to pull their head out of their arse and realize Montana is one of the main states that hold tight to our 2A values. Really, WTF were they thinking??? I've voted Democrat governors up until Busse was placed on their pedestal. Sad that Democrat leadership is that far out of touch with Montanans.
Thus 21% voter strength for Gianforte. I believe Democrats enhanced the red nature of this cluster we are set to deal with. I don't want all red nor blue. Democrats sure took a crap in their own campaign office.
