Given this a lot of thought, because all along i've indicted Democrats as much as Republicans for the Trump phenomenon and am still nowhere near as upset by our current President as i was by Dubya, and i've decided that, unless the country really comes to embrace Peteyjudge's good citizenship model, to support victory by the "socialist" wing of the Democratic Party over these tepid Anyone But Trump efforts. A couple of months ago, i was sure that the President's constituency was capped and that the Donkeys couldn't screw it up unless they nominated Liz Warren and she had a meltdown in the debates, but i keep remembering thinking the same way in 2004.
Bush43 (though he probably had a higher cap than Trump will) had proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was a muppet-brained puppet to a crony govt selling us downriver to their corrupt vision - i was amazed that opponents never did an opposition ad, alternately flashing the dozens of brrrrutal headlines of GWB wrongs with his malaprops with "Four more years?! Really?!?!" at the end - but America still re-upped him so we'd have a financial crisis to go with our international follies, the most shameful political moment in American History.
Then 8 yrs of no vision, no plans, no solutions from Obama (even tho Dubya had pushed the pins halfway up the alley) and Hillary Clinton's legacy push that legitimized BOTH Sanders & Trump and America achieved the government it deserves - a babysitter running a live minicam peepshow out of our house. Thinking about it, though, there is no chance that stasis-quo Democratic politics is going to reverse any courses and stands just as good a chance of advancing our demise as the incumbent - without the daily embarrassments and withering pathologies, of course. If i'm right, this might actually be the time to take the chance to change governance over a hobbled opponent. For an unaffiliated leftist who has never seen a leftist American government nor a leftist Democratic candidate in 48 yrs, maybe this is a time to be seized.
