Republicans have already been portaying him as stalin. If it turns out he goes corporate dem I think most people are going to just not feel bad when some maga lunatic shoots him.

Imo its win win either way at this point. If cuomo or adams win they're much less likely to be targeted. I also suspect if its close trump will use this as test ground for using the FBI or something to rig elections. Voting in the USA is like anything else here, its some fucked up form of gambling.

Edit: people forget that Fidel Castro was a lib until the US backed regime cracked down. I know people love the "scratch a liberal" meme but there are instances where this stuff goes the other way.
