Trump just Blue Falconed Sliwa... I know I estimated that Cuomo would win from the beginning; but that doesn't mean I would've told people to not to vote for Sliwa first; wow...
Ya, some weird activities happening here in the NY and VA election....
Still trying to figure out the implications from both the bigger picture and the rationale...
In the NY case - I suspect that the thinking was that Cuomo was the lesser of the Evil with Sliwa not perceived to have a realistic shot at winning...
In Va - Trump did not endorse Winsome Sears in Va as the R candidate for Governor.... But the rationale, learned thru the grape vine, could have been that VA has been more Blueish than Purple in recent elections - so the Trump camp may have perceived that she had a better shot as an African American retired Marine on her own; and avoid the risk that a Trump endorsement would likely lead to those with TDS going out of the way to NOT vote for such a woman of color and valor...
In the NY case... putting my Strategic Thinking Cap on - I do not lose sleep over the 'sound bites' - I always try to interpret the Optics, rationale and the anticipated outcomes and in this case - I am of the mind that everything was going to happen tonight for a reason...
In NY - I interpret that it won't be very long for the PEOPLE to WAKEUP to the implications of a Communist Socialist being at the helm of the largest city in the USA... Regardless of the anticipated FINGER POINTING.... bla bla bla... nothing useful ever comes from useless whining...
I anticipate that we will likely SEE and LEARN HOW WRONG the NY Outcome will result...
