I answered very quickly but you deserved more of an answer:


This I have to disagree with.

Fuck the Democratic party. I’m not a member. (surprise!)

“The left” does not = the democratic party. The left and progressives are pretty angry at the democrats and have been for years.

treating “the left” like it’s some monolith, and like it’s coextensive with the democratic party, is ridiculous. “the left” is wildly diverse and the activist left loathes the Democratic party.

I am truly curious about your post. Full disclosure up front - I am strongly opposed to the Democratic Party in what it has become since the days of Kennedy, Humphrey and Jackson. As a matter of fact I consider it to be borderline treasonous, if not out and out treasonous, in many of its actions.
If this does not bring approval from the Left, what would?
I’m not trying to be snide, just truly wondering.
