And we have had many awful governors tying our state with the definition of corrupt, for some.

Flood social media with the most sympathetic pictures of the cat you can find. Have one where it's napping on a child's head like a hat? Include proof of ownership (the Home again information) Tag every Law Enforcement agency and News agency within 30 miles. Do this several times a day on every platform. Don't stop.

Aside from a tiny group of fools, no one questioned that Trump won the 2016 election. Hillary conceded within a day. He won based on the rules to win the presidency. Whether he knew or not, it was clear certain foreign adversaries pushed to have him elected. There were protests wearing pussy hats, which has proven to be an appropriate reaction given the recent ruling.
Trump has never conceded and directed an angry mob that he knew was armed (Jan 6 hearings had the audio proving he knew they were armed) to at-best intimidate legislatures, at-worst to kill them. That happened.
Don't equivocate the scenarios.

I'm a leftist who lived in Pa at the time. I was pleasantly surprised by seeing a politician put his residents first. That all came to an end over bridgegate though lol

Mostly. I appreciate your perspective as a Tesla owner. Our Accord will hit 200k trouble free miles this year's, but we know those days are numbered. We are more of a "use it until it no longer can be reasonably repaired in my driveway" sort of green household. My newest cars are 10yo and my oldest is 33yo. We wouldn't personally pick a Tesla so the charging infrastructure isn't as important as it would be largely a commuting appliance. There isn't presently an EV that can replace our CR-V. But I understand that I am the exception and I am excited for the future of EVs. Especially if solid state batteries can be made a practical option.

So genuine question from someone who sees an EV as a perfect primary or secondary car for a two car household in the US.
Background. We regularly go on road trips and drive straight through 350 miles to Pittsburgh or go camping in the Adirondacks where there's barely cell service. However, I do commute into Newark several times per week, where I have dozens of free chargers available at my work. And like most people, 90% of the time I drive fewer than 100 miles per day.
Do you have a non EV? And what was the difference in your car insurance?
