They are trying to convince you that they are inevitable, but it’s just another lie

Strong parties don’t have to cheat, and when the bribe money runs out they are going down hard

Unions + apathy = Josh Green for governor.  Another 8 years (oh yes, he will win re-election, they always do.....) of kermit style leadership.

And big government

And corruption

The Police Union is the only one brave enough to stand up against the status quo.
You left out he is a poster boy for the democrats and gun control.
Very publicly for banning common types of rifles.

He is a doktah, so must be smarter than the peasants.

I know plenty of Hawaiian uncles flying Trump flags now that the party is switching over to populism/MAGA.
It very important that you made that distinction.  Hawaiian support for Trump has less to do with Republican ideology per se, but rather frustration with the Democrat or any other political party that continues the subjugation of Hawaiians to the other races and ethnicities living in Hawaii.  Having said that, there are still many Hawaiians that continue to accept the scraps the Democratic Party throws at them.

It’s mostly the Japanese-descendant aristocracy and downtown haloe office dwellers that are trying to hold on to power for dear life.
It's not just the two groups you mentioned, but the other large dark-skinned population of Hawaii, the local Filipinos, that are typically Democrat because they too suffered tremendous racism by the Republicans during the Territorial era.

The Democrats do love illegal immigration and a lot of local businesses rely on the slave labor force to help drive down wages

It’s one of the reason so many human traffic cases never get a follow up, never mind a conviction

Republicans are the one that raise taxes on people that work for a living in order to give tax breaks to those who don't.

I'm willing to give it a try, although he wasn't my choice in the primary.  I voted for Cordery.  At least I knew where Cordery stood on 2a issues.
