    And oh shucky dern, his hands were always conveniently tied. Except when it came time to sell weapons for genocide.

    You don’t actually care about minorities. Even more people would dead by now under four years of Trump. That’s immaterial to you.

    Democrats consider minorities expendable in their unending quest for Republican votes.

    So do you. Except you want moral victory over the Democrats.

      I’ve spent the past few decades wanting that party to move to the left and voting for them. They did what you wanted instead and moved to the right.

        I don’t want Democrats to move to the right. I want people to stop hunting for a moral victory over the Democrats. Progressives voting for them is how we get them to move to the left.
