Chapter 586, Commonwealth
Everything is difficult at the beginning, and as long as you succeed at the beginning, you will find that things will become easier and easier. For the management of New York, Brooklyn chose policing as the beginning.
They opened this head for two or three months, and when it came to Mark Millay, he had reconciled with people out of court, and when the military had finished resettled New York, it was time for Mark Millai to leave New York, and it was not yet finished.
They cleaned up the gangsters in Brooklyn, which can only be regarded as 'clearing the topsoil', and it is far from being truly safe.
At least they haven't figured out a way to house homeless people and addicts whose fate is unknown.
Like cancer cells, they stubbornly grew in all corners of New York and continued to expand their scope, and everywhere they went, the law and order environment rapidly deteriorated, and the society was in chaos, comparable to Xlia.
They just cleaned up the gangs and initially untied them for social order. Just as New York was in the midst of a state of change, Winston received an unusual phone call.
After answering the phone, a loud crackling noise was heard in his office. Then the door opened, and Winston came out panting and carrying his coat, yelling as he went
"What about people!" The little girl serving coffee next to her was so frightened that she almost spilled the coffee in Winston's face.
Winston's chief of staff quickly appeared. Ten minutes later, Winston's staff began to discuss. In the afternoon, Brooklyn learned the situation.
Mr. President invited Winston to stand for his election! Mr. President will be coming to New York State for an election campaign, and he will want Winston to stand up for him and accompany him through New York State.
Where does Winston, who has 'abandoned the darkness and turned to the light', have the time to accompany Mr. President to put on a show? He can't finish a lot of work every day, who has the leisure to stand up for a Mr. President who doesn't even support his own party?
Idle eggs hurt! Isn't it fragrant to have this time to rest and rest, to house a few homeless people? But Mr. President has a tough attitude.
Later, there was also a call from the party, demanding that he must stand up for Mr. President and cooperate with Mr. President's election campaign.
In addition to not being optimistic about Mr. President's campaign, there is another important reason why Winston does not want to participate in Mr. President's campaign.
They had just formulated a strategy and decided to stay away from the political whirlpool in Washington, and if they could, they would not get touched, but how long had passed, and he was approached by the whirlpool!
Winston understood the party's decision. The Republican Party is still infighting, there is no unity of opinion within the party, and there is still a great deal of disagreement within the party about Mr. President.
But the party can't put a second person in the ring to fight the Democrats. Apart from the current Mr. President, the Republican Party does not have a second person of sufficient weight available.
The general election requires careful preparation and a long period of foreshadowing, and it is not something that can be decided on the spot with a pat on the head.
Now it is clearly too late to prepare. Mr. President has also taken advantage of external pressure and internal unavailability to try to heal the rift in the party, and there is a tendency for the Republican Party to reunite.
Winston looked a little agitated when he told Brooklyn about this. After saying that, he sighed and reminded
"Brooklyn, be careful." Brooklyn was listening to what had happened to Winston as a joke and was amazed
"Me? Why should I be careful? I don't have anything to do with Mr. President. I'm non-partisan. ”
"You're the judge he nominated." Winston was speechless for Brooklyn. Originally, Brooklyn thought Winston was making a bit of a fuss.
Winston is the governor of New York, and that's a well-known thing. And Winston is also a member of the Republican Party — and it's an open secret that he's still a Republican despite his low profile.
In this case, it is easy to understand that Mr. President, who is also a member of the Republican Party, came to New York State to conduct election campaigns, and Winston, who is also a member of the Republican Party, accompanied him throughout the whole process.
If the Republicans don't help the Republicans, do they help the Democrats? Brooklyn has thought of this for a long time. He could even imagine that if the Democrats were to come to New York to campaign, the Republicans would give Winston a sabotage order.
After all, in everyone's eyes, New York is now Republican. Helping party insiders run for election does not mean actively participating in the political struggle in Washington.
They stayed in New York, and they didn't want to cause trouble, and they weren't afraid of it. If there is a provocation to the door, the most powerful response will be given.
In this way, soon everyone will understand their attitude and position, and they will no longer be embarrassed.
But this is limited to Winston, Brooklyn itself is different! He's non-partisan! One can tolerate Winston running for the Mr. President election because of his Republican membership, but they can't stand Brooklyn as well!
Brooklyn frowned and put away the joke.
"When is he coming to New York?" Brooklyn asked. Winston subconsciously shook his head, and then remembered that they were talking on the phone, not face-to-face, and then said
"I don't know, I've always kept a low profile in the party, and Mr. President didn't send an itinerary to come over." The federal election is in September next year, and there are 50 states in the union.
Even though some states belong to the Republican Party, it is still a big project to run all of them in 10 months.
However, according to the convention, they should first 'attack' the swing states, and they will be relatively relaxed for the states that have already 'settled into the pocket'.
Is New York a swing state? Brooklyn feels that Mr. President doesn't count New York as a swing state.
In addition to the reasons for the victory of the New York incident, the reason why Winston purged the government department went so smoothly was also the tacit approval of the Republican Party.
As a former swing-leaning Democratic-state, the Republican Party has also made great efforts to compete with the Democrats.
Without the acquiescence of the Republican Party, he may have received a call from the party at the first moment of the purge.
The Republicans made it easy for Winston to get better control of New York State and help him purge the government, which is what the partisans should do.
Correspondingly, as a member, Winston must also fulfill his obligations as a Republican member and obey the party's arrangements.
Brooklyn scoffed at this.
"Leave them alone, we'll continue at the same pace."
"There's no way I'm going to canvass for Mr. President."
"I'm not a member of your Republican Party, so why should I listen to him?" Winston was silent for a moment before saying
"There are people in the party who have hinted that I can run in the general election, and they will support me." Brooklyn: "??? ”
"How's your relationship with Mr. President, Winston?" Brooklyn asked. The last time he was about to go ahead with Michael's plan, he asked Winston to help him contact Mr. President, only then he changed his mind.
But if Winston knew Mr. President really well, he should have done it with a phone call, and he would not have had time to regret changing his mind.
Winston Road
"I only know Mr. President, not very well—haven't I said that before?" Brooklyn ignored his rhetorical question and continued
"Do you want to run in the general election?"
"I don't want to, of course I don't." Winston shook his head like a rattle
"Participating in the election is not good for us, and I wish the whole world was selectively blind now, so I can't see us!"
"It's impossible, unless you go and take everybody's eyes off." Brooklyn made a little joke and said
"The upcoming general election will inevitably attract the attention of the whole Federation, and wherever the election favorites go, the whole Federation will pay attention. We're afraid we don't have much time. "The federal election is not a voter count, and the one with the highest number of votes is elected president.
With a total of 538 votes cast in the federal election, the candidate who wins an absolute majority of the electoral votes will become the next federal president.
The 538 votes included 535 votes equivalent to the number of members of the House and Senate and the House of Representatives, as well as three Washington, D.C. ballots.
These votes are what candidates value. A federal election simply means that each state elects a certain number of electors, and then the electors cast their votes according to the wishes of the majority of voters in the state.
To ensure fairness, the number of electors in each state is distributed according to the number of federal parliamentarians. The two-gang election is a 'winner-takes-all' system, meaning that if a presidential candidate has the support of a majority of voters in a state, all the electoral votes in that state go to him.
Theoretically, electors are expected to vote according to the will of the people, but in practice there have been more than 100 cases in the ascertained history of the Union in which electors ignored the will of the people.
Theoretically, a presidential candidate could ignore the electorate and go straight on the electoral offensive...... But no one does.
Politicians can't just put on a face, that's really adding fuel to the fire. As a result, candidates in general elections choose to go to various states to campaign, give speeches, attend local festivals, have fun with the people, donate money, and attend a messy ceremony...... As long as they can get the voters to choose themselves, they will do whatever it takes.
Voters can't vote for the president directly, but they can vote for the electors, who can then vote for the president of their choice.
This poses a huge problem: Brooklyn has a growing grip on New York, but not enough to turn the swing state into a Republican legacy.
What's even more fatal is that Brooklyn's approach to New York is completely different from that of the entire Federation.
They are which is easy to use, which is suitable for which one. I don't think about any mess like Democratic-Republican divides at all.
The Democratic Party's economic policy advocates strengthening government intervention and regulation, supporting increased social welfare and poverty reduction, and raising taxes and public spending.
Republicans, on the other hand, advocate limiting government intervention, encouraging market competition and free trade, and lowering taxes and spending.
In terms of social policy, the Democratic Party advocates equality and multiculturalism, and supports LGbtq+ rights, women's rights, and minority rights.
Republicans are more conservative, emphasizing family values and advocating the protection of traditional culture and religious freedom.
The Democratic Party has been more active in environmental protection, advocating for stronger environmental protection measures and reducing carbon emissions. Republicans, on the other hand, believe that environmental measures will have a negative impact on the economy, and advocate emphasizing the priority of economic interests.
In terms of foreign policy, the Democratic Party advocates foreign cooperation and multilateralism, and emphasizes the importance of international organizations and laws.
The Republican Party, on the other hand, advocates strengthening national security and interests and adopting a tougher attitude. There are significant differences between the Democratic and Republican parties in terms of economic, social, environmental, and foreign policy.
The Democratic Party places more emphasis on government intervention and social welfare, while supporting equality and multiculturalism; Republicans, on the other hand, advocate free markets and small government, while being more conservative, emphasizing family values and religious freedom.
If the Democrats are called the birth of Mary and the rebirth of Jehovah, the Republican Party is a ruthless Satan Lucifer.
How fairytale and warm the vision portrayed by the Democratic Party is, how cold and realistic the Republican Party is.
Objectively speaking, Brooklyn believes that the Democrats are "indispensable" to the fact that the Union is in the current situation.
A series of laws and policies that Brooklyn is worried about are all being promoted by the Democratic Party. Brooklyn doesn't have the slightest good impression of the Democratic Party.
But that doesn't mean the Democrats don't have the slightest merit. The Democratic Party's advocacy of equality is indisputably correct.
The only way to blame is that the Democratic Party itself will not be able to do it, and it will make good equality into a miasma of good equality and mixing up the federation.
But is there a problem with advocating equality between men and women, racial equality, so that minorities can also enjoy fairness and enjoy the same rights as the majority?
Brooklyn's approach to New York is to combine the merits of all parties, advocate freedom, equality and goodness, but not overdo it, fully grasp the scale, and at the same time speculate with the greatest malice about human nature, and conduct rehearsals and prepare alternatives.
This is just some ideological, ideological, and imaginary. In reality, the reality is even worse.
Because the 'Virgin' attribute of the Democratic Party and the 'Satan' attribute of the Republican Party are two completely irreconcilable and hostile attributes, both have diametrically opposite views in multiple fields.
For example, energy. The Democratic Party prefers clean energy, advocates pollution-free and all-natural energy, and advocates and supports new energy.
The Republican Party has less scruples. The Republican Party belongs to the 'realist faction', what is the use, what is the use, what is good to use, as for polluting the environment?
Not under consideration. Unemployment in New York continues to rise, and the New York events are followed by a government purge.
At this time, don't think about any clean energy, new energy and the like, there is use, it can be used, and ensuring the basic operation of society is the first thing they should consider in Brooklyn.
But when society is functioning without worry, they also have to consider the impact of environmental pollution on the city. After all, not everyone likes to live in the smog of heavy industry.
If you can breathe fresh air, most people will still choose fresh air. Therefore, Brooklyn is already starting to gradually replace it with new clean energy.
This is a less essential expense. In addition, Brooklyn has borrowed a lot from the Democratic Party and applied it in practice.
What would Republicans think if they saw this? New York State, which I helped to take, was stolen by the Democrats in the blink of an eye?
My big New York State, stolen?
