019 Left and right, middle left, middle right!
In the California House of Representatives office, Philip waved his little fist again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
A few campaign aides were quick to operate the computers in front of them or flip through the newspapers in their hands.
"Philip, don't be so nervous. A middle-aged female Hispanic assistant brought coffee, "He's just a clown." β
"Then make sure you don't get beaten by the clown!" Philip took his coffee and sipped it down like a drink.
At this time, an assistant got up and said: "Sir, we don't need to look for it at all, Colin Lee's scandal is overwhelming, it is not difficult to find a scandal, what is difficult is to find positive news." β
Philip glared, "So what? I paid you just to get you to tell me this?"
"I think so......" said the assistant seriously, "since his ugly deeds are known to the whole world, it is too ...... for us to seize these attacks again"
"It's so boring. The Hispanic woman nodded, "And it seems like we're very unseemly, this clown is trying to pull us to the same level as him, and then beat us with his vast experience." β
"So what are we supposed to do? Wait for the voting to begin?" asked Philip.
"More speeches, more events, maintaining his exposure, that clown will give up soon. β
"What should I do...... "Philip thought for a moment," said Philip, "tonight...... Oh no, three days later, a poll will come out, and I'll see how far he can go. β
"There's no need to be so scared. β
"I'm the boss, listen to me!" Philip knocked on the table lightly, "Colin has already attacked me, and we need to return the color!"
Philip didn't know why he was so restless, and it stands to reason that no one would be able to take his turn.
Yes, it stands to reason.

At noon, Li Colin, accompanied by Thomson, completed his "resignation from the party" and "joining the party." It is worth mentioning that no one dares to use the word "traitor" in public to accuse Li Kolin, the party is an organization formed by like-minded people walking together, and if your position and ideas change, you should come and go freely, so there is treason, not treason.
Contrary to the word "traitor", this choice to join the party is praised, and the courage of the individual to pursue his own ideals and leave the entrenched organization to join another party as a newcomer is the embodiment of the spirit of freedom and idealism, especially for Li Colin, which means parting ways with his father with deep pockets and powerful brother, which requires great courage.
So in the report, Li Colin became a frank young man who had the courage to pursue his ideals, which was mixed with bloody scenes about Jenny. It's hard to say whether the prodigal son actually turned back, but he did at least one more positive thing than sleeping with a black female boxer.
After agreeing with Thomson on the official time of his candidacy speech, the two shook hands in front of the camera and parted, and they were very intimate.
Li Colin's campaign road has also officially begun, it is a busy road to death, and even lunch has to be solved in the car.
Lee Colin was chewing a burger and drinking Coke, while Eric, who was sitting next to him, was going to starve temporarily, and he wanted to avoid eating at the same time as Lee Collin, because he was going to use the time to talk like crazy.
Whether Lee Colin is a genius or an idiot, Eric has to make clear to him the consequences of switching to the Republican Party!
"Before I get started, I'm going to clarify a few basic concepts to make sure you don't make jokes. β
"Can you say later, I want to give my brain a break now. Li Colin grabbed the hamburger and said he was bored.
"No, you can't. β
"Okay. β
Eric said, "Let's leave the little parties and free elections behind, we're just going to talk about the Democrats and the Republicans, and I'm going to make sure you figure out the difference." β
"Please......"
"The Democrats are on the left, the Republicans are on the right. β
"I can't figure it out!"
"I'll show you a political spectrum. β
"That would be even more incomprehensible! Explain it to me in a way that children understand!"
Eric shook his head helplessly: "It's exactly the same as when he started." β
"Who?"
"It doesn't matter. Eric made a comparisonβ
"The left is equality, the right is freedom. β
"The left is collectivism, the right is individualism. β
"On the left is high welfare and high taxes, and on the right is low welfare and low taxes. β
Li Colin asked, "This is quite understandable. It's just that...... Does the law say that the Democrats should be on the left and the Republicans should be on the right?"
"Not at all, partisan positions evolve naturally. Eric immediately dismisses this naΓ―ve idea, "For example, the poor want better welfare, and the rich don't want to pay more taxes to these people who want to get something for nothing, and the poor and the rich are naturally divided into two positions." β
"So the Democrats represent the poor and the Republicans represent the rich?"
"That's pretty much it. β
"Then there are obviously many poor people in this world! If you have one person, one vote, the Republican Party will be finished!"
On the surface, in terms of headcount, the Democratic Party's support rate in the United States is nearly 10 percentage points ahead of the Republican Party, but in the actual election, there are many, many factors, and the position deviation between people is by no means as simple as rich and poor. β
"For example?"
"For example, traditional Protestants think that abortion is a desecration of life, that homosexuality is an insult to God, and for others, they think that they can choose their own sexual orientation, they can choose when to have children, and this is one of the opposing positions, and people with two positions will naturally lean towards the left-wing Democrats or the right-wing Republicans. β
After 238 years of evolution, the current Democratic Party and the Republican Party have been formed, with the Democratic Party generally leaning towards openness and the Republican Party leaning toward conservativeism. β
"So the Democrats are biased towards neo-socialism, and the Republicans prefer old-fashioned capitalism?"
"Almost. Eric followed up and explained, "So Colin, you are a Republican now, and your words and actions can appropriately go against the purpose of the Republican Party, but you must not be on the side of the Democrats." β
"So I can't lean left?"
"You can lean appropriately, but you can't cross the line. β
"Where's the line?"
"This is going to be detailed, even if the Republican Party is generally right-leaning, it is also divided into left, center, and right......"
"Okay! I don't want to hear it! I'll talk about it later!" Li Colin swallowed the last bite of the burger, "Where am I going next?"
"According to our plan, we are going to use resources to hype up this matter, and the people who are running for the company will come to see you at three o'clock. Eric clicked on the map on the screen in front of him, "I'll get out of the car right away and lobby, and you go straight back to the Universal Hotel." β
"Who are you going to lobby?"
