I agree he is a nice guy. If McCrory ends up losing NC after all the votes are counted I hope President Trump will remember him in his administration. When Trump was in Wilmington on Saturday he brought McCrory up to the stage and said McCrory had been behind him and supported him from day one. I hope that loyalty can be rewarded somehow.
It seems to me that if (likely) McCrory does lose, this should be an excellent opportunity to leverage the Dem out in 4 years. Pick some job creating type projects / policies the nit is sure to oppose for, say, environmental reasons. (Farce type reasons, not solid reasons.) Perhaps some of these would fit in with Trump’s proposals. Ram ‘em through the opposition, anyway. This helps the Pubs (record of job creation in spite of opposition) and wrecks the meme that the transgender law has harmed NC’s economy. I’ll bet FReepers can think up other strategies, too. :-)
