Come January, the GOP will control every elected statewide office in Louisiana after Republicans swept three runoff races for attorney general, secretary of state and treasurer Saturday night.
The GOP success, in a state that has had a Democrat in the governor’s office for the past eight years, means that Republicans secured all of Louisiana’s statewide offices for the first time since 2015. In addition, the GOP holds a two-third supermajority in the House and Senate.
Liz Murrill was elected as attorney general, Nancy Landry as secretary of state and John Fleming as treasurer. The results also mean Louisiana will have its first female attorney general and first woman elected as secretary of state.
Saturday’s election completes the shaping of Louisiana’s executive branch, where most incumbents didn’t seek reelection and opened the door for new leadership in some of the most powerful positions.
MAGA is grounded on protectionist, anti-immigrant isolationism. Those three things are all inimical to neoliberalism
How much of that is rhetoric and how much of that is actual policy though
Well Trump blew up NAFTA, imposed immigration restrictions based on nationality, wants to end US involvement in NATO and the UN, pulled money out of the WHO, and also pushed for significant tariffs that started a trade war, so all of his actual policies are the opposite of neoliberalism
Didn’t he replace NAFTA with the CUM Alliance or some such, and it was basically the exact same thing but with Trumps name next to it instead of Clinton’s?
That, and it's not free trade. Dudes as arrogant as he is simple minded
