Reporter I: Senator Dole said so.

President Brown: First time I was criticized by a Republican senator? I’m shocked!

LOL... best part of a great update.

The whole ATC/FAA debacle was the biggest part, but maybe my dislike of labor unions is getting in the way (though I don't see how $5,000 more on between $20,000 and $30,000 isn't enough). Foreign policy has been worse, as we've been bowing to the Soviets. We need to elect a moderate anti-tax elitist in 1984 at this point.

Computer was Raygun hack and lost MO due to Kit Bond corruption. PREZ NROWN passed Freedom Information Act and stimulus is underway, his approvals are going up and R nut maps will be obsolete anyways. Last time Rs won was with Rockefeller, whom died in office and Ford dropped out. Consequently, theyre powerless despite MT Treasurer saying House is Safe R. Blue Wave🌊 🌊 is building up for midterms and Mr. TOM BRADLEY will be socialist AA gov in Hispanic state. CA is done with Raygun anyways whom lost to Prez Brown when Computer69 had R authoritarian nut map winning. Rs were overpredicting and lost by 200 votes haha 😆😆

[Sir Mohamed]

My prediction: Brown will remain look vulnerable through 1982 and rebound at some time in 1983 before winning a landslide reelection in 1984, similar to Reagan IRL.

[Sir Mohamed]

Interesting, the NY bill is de facto Romneycare. If that's already passed in 1982, either Brown or whoever is the Dem prez after him can make it a national law. 20-30 years ahead of time.

[Sir Mohamed]

Ugh, and I wondered how Church's death in April 1984 would affect the next race 4 prez? Seems like we're about to get a new VP before that.

Remember when Rockefeller was underwater in his first term? You guys never learn. I will enjoy bumping this thread in Nov '84 and y'all are then living in a Brown precinct

Grade President Brown’s presidency so far « Reply #27 on: January 1, 1982, 05:59:45 pm » I give him A-, he’s calling for the right policies, but the party turned away already. The recent drop in approval ratings is only the beginning, my friends. Brown managed to pull it off by a mere 200 votes in a usually red-leaning state against a candidate who had over a decade of smears as baggage. And even this guy is now leading Brown by double digits. Hell, he can’t even get beyond a tie against Curb! Brown is absolutely going to lose in ’84, and very badly. I guess the real poll here is only the one against Ford, who has universal name recognition. Any Republican will get 54% of the vote. The 50 EV amendment will absolutely pass, and we haven't won the NPV since 1968. So I wouldn't be surprised to see another 500+ EV. GOP win. Brown will be at 35% approval in November and we lose 50 House seats at minimum. 1984 will be a 1952 redux at best.

Dont you realize we’re 300 days from election and PREZ BROWN is gonna pass minimum wage with secular trifecta? ßtop dooming. You are Raygun apologist and predicted 400 EV nut🌰🌰map. Gallup is corrupted pollster said Ford is up before dropped out of race due to fact Rockefeller had heart attack when he was with females in office. Now hes gone and Rs cant crack 270 freiwall NROWN created with CA. Thats why Cavez was put in cabinet despite Rs voting against nomination😎😎 We need more polls in 300 days, but its gonna be 240(180 H since no 270 state has flipped anyways😆

[Sir Mohamed]

Oh no, RIP Frank Church.

I thought he'd die in office in April 1984, just as he did IRL. But creative to have Hinckley as assassin.

[Sir Mohamed]

VP Carter? That'll be interesting.

I have a feeling this might resemble the Reagan-Bush years in reverse. Brown/Carter get reelected in a landslide in '84, Carter gets elected prez in 1988 in this timeline, but loses to a moderate GOPer in 1992. So he'll still be a 1-term prez. Just 12 years later.

[Sir Mohamed]

Interesting results, I wonder who finally wins the conservatives vs. moderates battle within the GOP. Possibly depends on which candidates is nominated in 1984 and how well poor he does. Getting a feeling this is like actual '84, just reversed with the R nominee crushed by Prez Brown.

[Sir Mohamed]

Would be hilarious if the GOP primary becomes Ford-Reagan rematch. The former would probably have the edge then. That may make the GE more interesting than Baker or Laxalt as sacrificial lamb.

[Sir Mohamed]

Justice Robert Kennedy? That would be interesting. He'd already be 58 in 1983 though.

Would also be an interesting plot twist if 1984 ends up as Brown vs. Ford.

[Sir Mohamed]

Ugh, after the midterms it looked like Brown would cakewalk to a 2nd term. Now it doesn't look so certain again unless things turn around into 1984.

[Sir Mohamed]

Wow, this is going to be interesting. Unlikely Ford doesn't win the GOP nomination here, imho. He'd still be younger than Reagan in 1984, but older than Reagan in 1980.

If Ford becomes the nominee, there would again be an election with him and Carter on opposing tickets.

[Sir Mohamed]

I was sure 1984 was becoming something like a reverse RL 1984, now it's more shaping up like actual 1980 and Brown becomes Carter and Ford is Reagan (they're in switched roles here, with Raygun narrowly losing the previous election). Bentsen challenging Brown would make stuff even more interesting.

[Sir Mohamed]

Brown vs. Ford is going to be an interesting matchup, and the one we should have gotten in 1980 already.

I think it could go either way, though Ford seems to have upper hand here. Especially if the economy doesn't rebound more strongly.
