Or "here's the way WE do things it in OUR neck of the woods, so you should do it that way too" ... overall, it's rather insulting and in the end, it's a great way to create divisions and distrust. It has the potential to generally fuck things up and hand a victory to the GOP. I hope that doesn't happen.
