I agree, your previous governor Pat McCrory (who I nicknamed MC Pee Pants due to his obsession with starting up a state bathroom police force and the show Aqua Teen Hunger Force) made himself and the state quite a laughingstock when he was in charge which (IMO) resulted in Cooper's election. That was back before companies had their current fatigue with "SJWs" and were actually willing to take actions when radical state governments were trying to institute weirdo, fascist anti-trans policies. I remember his "bathroom bill" did not go over well on the national stage and I think that had something to do with his defeat in 2016.
I'm pretty unsure about what will happen this election cycle though. ๐
EDIT: Good luck to you guys, though. Hopefully, you keep sanity in the governor's mansion.
