Then why are you a Republican?
Because he immigrated to the US after hearing a speech from Reagan and promptly went from having almost nothing to starting his own business and becoming a multi-millionaire before he got into acting. He's what the Republican party used to advertise itself as. He is to the Republican Party what Worf is to the Klingon Empire.
Ahh finally an analogy my Lemmy brain can understand.
Ok but why is he republican today?
Because he's old and he's always been a Republican.
Now he just hates brown people. It's the circle of life.
Because the dem primary in CA would have been too crowded. Same reason Bloomberg ran as a republican his first NYC mayoral election. As a republican he could get to the general election uncontested. They're both independent types, it was just easier to win as a republican than an actual no party Independent. And if they had run as Democrats they would have been blue dog clinton conservative democrats. (IIRC Bloomberg did run as an independent when he could run as an incumbent.)
