Barack Obama was elected president, and the mood in the Republican Party picked up on the mood you’ve already described. But in the end, what he did electorally was not in that election to build the pan ethnic working class Republican Party. But at the very least, there was the conventional wisdom was that the Republican Party had to move substantially to the left on immigration. I just think that if the Republican Party is not the party of private property and wealth building, so I don’t think. Is there any chance that the Republican Party is about to not be the party of private property and wealth building No, no, I think you’re right.

Asian Americans now make up 12% of the electorate in Nevada, with Filipinos being the largest subgroup. In 2020, President Joe Biden won 64% of the state’s Asian American vote, while Trump took 35%. But in 2022, support in the Nevada governor’s race was more split among the local Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander community, which only voted blue by an 8% margin. But frankly, Covid, or as I call it, ‘the China virus,’ was a step too far,” he said. Trump took a moment to praise the Filipino community, saying he likes their clothes.

Trump will take the stage in Las Vegas alongside former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii in one of his first events geared toward Asian American communities. Organizers say they aim to bring Asian voters into the conservative movement and convince them Trump is the best choice for them. Exit polling after the 2020 election showed 58% of eligible voters in the community supported Joe Biden, while 40% supported Trump. Progressive Asian American and Pacific Islander leaders take issue with Kirk’s characterization that Asians in the state are aligning with Trump, saying their observation has been the opposite.

But she had sorted hers already, and it didn't feel right to ramble about my shenanigans when she didn't share hers. As I saw her text now, two years later, I wondered if ghosting was the right way to end a 15-year friendship.

"It may be difficult to find a rational, sane person who still identifies as a Republican" that would agree to serve in Harris' cabinet, Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut quipped. "There are a lot of Republicans that I think are capable of assuming Cabinet positions," Rep. Jim McGovern of Massachusetts said. "I'm not floating people's names for particular positions," Rep. Ro Khanna of California said, shortly after heaping praise on Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania and former Republican Rep. Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin. Though he said Harris' pledge was a "positive step," he made clear on Tuesday that he's not interested in serving in her administration.

Complications are bound to arise from all interpersonal relationship dynamics, so why not start a business with someone who knows you inside and out?
