Heh. Corporate democrats are the new conservatives. They happily filled that role when Republicans turned Regressive.
Yeah, every time the GOP moves right, the Dems chase after them. That's why they're now to the right of Reagan, some of them significantly so.
They're desperately trying to cling to the tiny slice of the population between the most right wing Democrats and the least right wing Republicans while ignoring the dozens of millions of Americans to the left of the DNC.
Except at election time where they demand "unity" (read: obedience) of the left in spite of offering nothing in return except (usually) not being quite as awful as the alternative 🤦
Part of me wonders, which party is going to fracture first.
Right now it looks like democrats, since the RNC has become the Cult of Trump
Depends whether you count the ejection of people like Liz Cheney as "fracturing," I suppose.
I guess maybe it won't really be a "fracture" until those people form their own new party instead of continuing to (delusionally) self-identify as Republicans.
Don't you know that if you don't support the Dems unquestioningly then you're just a closet Trumper, like those Muslim Americans unhappy with Biden's support of glorious Israel?
So I've been told a few thousand times, yeah.. 😮💨
