The comments are heartening. The parties are more alike than they are dissimilar. One is a better class of criminal, for sure, but neither is worth supporting carte blanche. There are a handful of elected Democrats who are worth supporting, but the longer they are exposed to the DNC “moderates,” the more they expose themselves to the weakness that most humans succumb to.
Show me a Blue No Matter Who voter, and I’ll show you someone who willingly gives their time and money to a billionaire who owns a pro sports team that already has ripped off the community they live in for millions of dollars in ballpark deals.
I think the problem is that in a system with first past the post voting and single district representation, the few Democrats who are worth supporting require the rest of the center right Dems to have a majority to have any real influence or access to power.
That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be extremely critical of center right Democrats, just that there is some benefit to voting for a party that you mostly disagree with. The only real route if you still think the democratic process holds any water is to primary the center right and force the party’s hand from the ground up.
We’ve recently seen that entryism is possible in modern politics, at least for conservatives… Whether or not it’s possible for progressives is still to be determined.

You’re right, and that’s why I vote Trump for a third term! They’re all the same after all.
Talk about perfectly exemplifying the people the post is making fun of…
