I think we're mostly on the same page, you just can still trust a Democrat, I guess?

Let's extend your analogy, though: the Democrats are shooting too, just not directly at me, at this moment. There's plenty dead at their hands.

I still might rally behind a Democrat to stop an authoritarian, one more fucking time.

And I might not.

We did this dance.

Democrats do not stop the shooting.

I am strongly inclined to trust a total stranger over an established Democrat.

I am not alone in that.

Even if a Democrat cared to save any of us, I do not believe that the Democratic party has the remaining influence to make any difference.

The Maga crowd got something right: the average Democrat politician is spineless, broken and unwilling or unable to disobey orders from a secret cabal of pedophiles.

If we could wake the Maga types up, they might realize the dumb fucks they're worshipping are part of the same pedophile ring.
