If you were going to vote for Bernie, presumably because economic justice is a big thing for you, voting instead for a billionaire who bought his way into the nomination is an awfully bitter pill to swallow.
Even if it is a liberal Billionaire who wants most of the same policies as Bernie. That’s so weird to decide to prefer supporting Trump over someone who is more liberal than Trump.
Throw me in with the "depends" crew. Biden, I could live with. But not "any Democrat".
I mean, the alternative is fucking
Trump.. None of the dems running is worse than fucking trump.
The DNC has done nothing to earn my unconditional loyalty.
This confuses me. This discussion is not about loyalty to the DNC. The DNC is not “demanding loyalty.”
This is a discussion about who YOU WANT as your next president. If you want trump, you either vote for trump or you don’t vote.
If you don’t want more of this unbelievable off-the-charts open corruption, grift and international embarrassment, who is packing the courts with neanderthals, gutting education, poisoning the water and giving he spoils to the ultra rich, you put your strength behind the only other candidate with a chance to beat him. And that is the Dem candidate, whoever that is. Not one of whom, again, is actually worse than Trump. If you think Trump is bad.
This idea that you’re proudly resisting a “demand for loyalty” is a fabrication to give you permission to support Trump. Because the DNC does not have the capability to “demand” anything, and they never have. That’s a cloak of persecution that is voluntary (and unwarranted)
Don't forget that any Democrat who beats Trump gets to set the tone for the party for decades. If that tone is "give the Republicans most of what they substantially want, while giving shallowest of lip service to minorities", we're sll screwed no matter what party is in office.
This is ... so... appalling in light of who is in the White House and who is running against the eventual Dem. What makes us SCREWED is if the GOP gets to keep selecting the judges, the cabinet members, the ambassadors. This is so much more important than just policies. That help for minorities that you (and I) want, can we get some NOT federalist society judges, please? For the love of reason. Long view here people.
You are saying you won’t support someone who (might) give the republicans most of what they want and so instead you will
fucking support someone who gives them ALL of what they want??.
That makes no sense. No sense at ALL. What is up with that? Cut off nose to spite face? Throw baby out with bathwater?
To protest giving GOP most of what they want, you give them all of what they ever hoped for in their most erotic wet dreams.
Who thinks like that?
