2. They are f'ing crazy.

NC was run by business progressive Republicans and conservative Democrats for ages until we got swamped by this factions in the 2010 redistricting. They think NC will lose around 4 BILLION dollars in revenue due to their crazy bathroom paranoia law. They are completely divorced from reality, and willing to do ANYTHING to maintain their un-democratic hold over the state. And they are NOT bright. At all. Just a bunch of whiny men-children with degrees from mediocre colleges and room temperature IQs trying to FORCE everyone to accept their god-given dominance as white men. The national GOP and Kochs send in actual smart people to tell them what to do, but the state level people are just dumb. It's infuriating to put up with that combination of evil and incompetence. Courts need to step in on the partisan gerrymandering issue or it is all going to end in tears....

Business leaders need to do something and fast. The alliance THEIR party made with these morons is costing everyone too much money. They built this monster, now they need to step up and control it. The Dixiecrat faction does not have enough votes to actually win anything if they are not enabled by moderate Republicans. They could stop this now by allying with Dems on certain issues.
