  • Yes, non-Republicans will vote in Republican primaries if the strategy is there.

    My state is (now) firmly red. Whoever wins the Republican primary will almost certainly win the general. As such, voting for the least shitty Republican in the primary is far more useful than voting Democrat in the general. On top of that, at least my Democrat primaries have been very milquetoast. It doesn’t make much difference who wins that.

    That all makes it a very simple decision to vote in the R primary.

    If you want to be calling the shots in a way that you can’t be fired, you have to become the majority shareholder. Like he did with Twitter. But then your customers can still leave. I’m sure that’s why he’s trying for those hefty govt contracts that can’t be terminated so easily.
