Just read Maureen Dowd's op ed piece in the NY Times...and it became more apparent than ever that Democrats and liberals are masters at identifying and discussing what Joe Biden is doing wrong (or just not doing)...while Republicans and conservatives are masters at not giving a shit about what Trump and people like him are doing wrong (or just not doing).
One side (the left) of the political continuum prides itself on being "honest" and being willing to find fault with their leaders...while the other (the right) prides itself on being able to totally disregard the faults of theirs. One side (the left) essentially aids their opponents...while the other side (the right) will shit on the agenda of the other (the left) even if it means giving up benefits for the people it represents.
Both sides, at the moment, are unified in creating an environment in which our Republic will be destroyed.
Okay. I'm 85...so fuck it. I'll be dead (relatively) soon. Let the future take care of itself.
But to the people of the left who insist on sharing why they oppose certain possible Democratic candidates no matter what...and who pride themselves for pointing our the faults and failures of today's Democratic leaders...you should all roast in Hell (if there is a Hell) for all eternity. You are as culpable in the disaster that will ensue if Trump or ANY REPUBLICAN candidate wins over whomever the Democrats choose.
ON HIS WORST DAY, JOE BIDEN IS A BETTER PRESIDENT THAN TRUMP WAS ON HIS BEST DAY!

So..screw freedom of thought, lockstep or go fuck your mother, right Frank?
Southern blacks derailed the Democratic Party's modernization in the 2020 primaries and the party has not yet recovered.
We don't lose sight of the huge improvement that Biden represnts over the diseased orangutan, Frank,
but Americans in general have not been historically good at looking at the big picture.
They reflexively react to their immediate circumstances and eventually pay the price for doing so.
It's a catastrophic national weakness that's taking its toll on the republic..
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969
Dude
I get your frustration
We are NOT a cult
The Democratic Party self polices
Us oldsters have seen the cycle too many times
The decent people who are willing to self examine up against utter fucking criminals who seek nothing but power and money
It’s hard to explain it to the youngins
So much history to LEARN to prove the cycle
Don’t give up
Trust the facts
Show them the FACTS
OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER
Show them the facts
Facts are our guideposts
Share them
And trust the kids to make the right decision
ITS OUR JOB IN THIS CYCLE TO SHOW THEM THE FACTS
You are wrong
They did not derail anything
They were cheated out of their votes dude
Go read about the work of Stacy Abrams
Tell me when in this nation did you began to see long long lines to vote like we now have?
Think about it
After Bush
After Bush stole the election
When we started to use computers to vote
Because then you had to have the infrastructure to cast a vote
Limit the amount of infrastructure to certain voting areas and poof you have long long lines to vote
Those lines we always see sure have lots of brown and black peoples in them huh
Stop with your racism dude
Your fucking up big time
Now here’s a poll guestion I saw recently
70 percent of people said that they believe Biden’s numbers will go back up soon
Without having seen the article I can gander a guess. She's talking about people on the left, who while glad Democrats have power think many mainstream Democrats are neoliberals and need to move to the left. Thus the proverbial political question, should you just be happy to have power or really fight to do what you want when you have it?
In California there's a new Working Families Party that's been formed. They aren't going to run candidates for office as much as back the most progressive ones possible. The WFP claims too many Democrats in the state are beholden to big tech and corporate dollars. Of course there has been some pushback that they will be spoilers and support too many candidates who can't win.
So again same thing, is overall power more important or candidates aligned closer to your interests?
Oh and to the youngins
Really this is a constant pattern
I know you think us old Dems are just a little cult
WE ARE NOT
It’s real
The Democratic Party is not perfect
What gathering of mankind is?
But please please please at least examine the facts we tell you about the past actions of the two major parties
I’m a Democrat because of the facts and history
Believe in mankind
Believe in Democracy
The Democratic Party is the only reason we are not already a fascist nation
Work from the local level right to the top level with the Democratic Party for a few years
Get the Republican Party cheating removed from the equation
You elect as many Democrats as possible for a few years
You will be blow away by the result
We will have a free nation again
Then we can truely begin to build an opposition party that has integrity
IMAGINE
a nation with two moral parties Working their asses off to come up with better ideas than the other party
A nation where you sometimes vote for one party and sometimes vote for the other party BECAUSE of their ideas
A real Democracy
