  4. Hang on now, I actually have the most Red Govs this time! If I have the rules right and I get to choose the speaker, I’ll go with @Largo833 Thomas Tipton.
  5. For the record, Party Leader Chase will defer to Lincoln’s VP selection and not make a competing VP nomination.
  6. It was fun watching some of the hardcore DeSantis supporters on twitter last night- I’d say it generally was months of delusional, head in the sand denial, then last night shifted to a one to two hour meltdown and raging that the media shouldn’t have called the obvious result so early, then shifted right back to denial, with loads of tweets about why this is actually a great result for DeSantis!
  7. Greeley will decline Grant's offer, and instead will drop out and endorse @Euri Abraham Lincoln. Wade will likewise drop out and endorse Lincoln.
  8. In a very deliberate middle finger to the South, the Radical Republicans will have Frederick Douglass nominate Greeley.
  9. Had to check a notecard first to remember which candidate he was speaking for.
  10. After the stunt Campbell just pulled in the SCOTUS nomination, Chase declares that he will do everything in his power to make sure Campbell never becomes President.
  11. All right, is everyone sitting down? Because I'm about to do something truly crazy, something that I don't think I've ever seen done before, at least in the playtests that I've followed closely- President Salmon P Chase will adhere to established precedent and decline to run for a third term. Celebrity and perennial House candidate Horace Greeley will run as a major candidate. Senator Benjamin Wade will run as a minor candidate.
  12. Technically I don't think Chase can "compel" Curtis to retire since Curtis has Integrity, though in this particular case I could choose to have him step down since he's a member of my faction. Regardless, he'll stay in the court and Chase will nominate @Largo833 Samuel Fenton Cary to take McLean's spot.
  13. Bills- Despite some misgivings about a couple of the bills that were passed, Chase will sign all. Executive Actions- -Call on Congress to Set Average Tariff Rate to 30% -Abolish National Debt Policy -Pro-Military Budget Increase Policy -Take Possession of Midway Islands in the Pacific
  14. All will attempt to sway RedRW to vote AYE on SR-10. Davis filibusters HR-3. Wells filibusters HR-6.
  15. Package the two Senate Economic bills, no change to the Foreign/Military bills.
  16. Lot Morrill- REPEAL Chinese Laborers and Low-Skill Worker Ban Thaddeus Stevens- Create the Freedmen's Bureau to organize the welfare of destitute former slaves
  17. Woods, AL (1 Gov)- Increase State Gov Jobs Baxter, AR (1 Gov)- Build Railroad Fremont, CA (2 Gov)- Build Railroad Pomeroy, KS (2 Gov)- Build Railroad (doubled chance of success) Dunn, LA (1 Gov)- Lower Taxes Miller, MN (1 Gov)- Build Railroad (doubled chance of success) Ashley, OH (3 Gov)- Improve Manufacturing Industry Powell, SC (1 Gov)- Increase State Gov Jobs Farwell, WI (1 Gov)- Lower Taxes
  18. Option B- Relocate settlers and avoid provoking any attacks. Option A- This is a steal! Who knows how many many resources there could be in such a large chunk of land!
  19. Appoint @Blockmon RedCons Alexander Randall as Minister to China.
  20. @Euri Francis W Kellogg Appoint @10centjimmy RedRW David Mitchell to replace Kellogg in the House.
