    All you guys suck, democrats enabled the rise of fascism by being impotent cowards trying to get the scraps left behind by the republicunts.

    Everyone should still vote for them becuase they are better than the only other option in your dogshit political system.

    Vote as far left as possible all the way up, if it ends up as trump v clinton then it should be the lefter of the two.

      And Democrats will always take advantage of that. They supported genocide last election. How much further to the right are they going to go? Because they will never move one Planck length to the left.

        But if they consistently win it still alter the political landscape such that someone else will have a better chance of enacting actual change in the future.

        The two party system is garbage, but if one of the two current parties lost its ability to win entirely then a different second option could appear.

          Agree. Within legal means, this is the only way to shift the Overton Window back left. When Democrats are secured from Republicans, then we should be pushing for more progressive options. Democrats would not be expanding the concentration camps like the Republicans are.

        okay so what’s your next step? because letting the right win has to be the stupidest ever way to influence change to the left
