    Pretty much. The left can’t be bothered by pragmatism and is blinded by perfectionism. It boggles my mind how the political side who should be the go to for most of the population can’t make politics.

      “the left”- you have no idea what is left or right. The left maybe have two proponents in the entirety of government.

        Maybe not voting hurts the chances of not having more proponents in government. Think we found the problem.

          Nah couldn’t be, everyone should just let the fascist elect themselves and then cry about fascism.

            Y’all implying I didn’t vote? You’re fucking delusional!

            I voted blue straight down the line in a very very red state knowing where our electoral votes would fall.

              Not you personally, but a lot of people that are less right than republicans didn’t show up so trump won.

                That’s absolutely true. I was holding onto some small glimmer of hope that my state might send it’s 3 votes her way, but no. Went 2-1 for shitler.
