        Same here, but let’s be honest. It could just as easily be dems too - DNC ain’t no saint either. We’re comparing apples to oranges here (no pun intended, but I still chuckled) but they’re both pretty old/rotten

            I’d say the systematic removal of Bernie from the lineup in the 2016 election was a pretty big fucking fail, to me as a liberal.

            Still better than the alternative, but one shit pile who’s smaller than the other, is still a shit pile.

            Politics are multifaceted ultimately, and only ever really having 2 sides to choose from almost always leads to some pretty serious “misalignments”
