Democratic voters need to find their balls and brains to deny the establishment their choice instead of reluctantly getting behind the MSNBC boosted candidate. The best thing we can do for the Democratic party at this moment is criticize the fuck our of establishment bullshit.
If it looks like that's going to happen, they just won't bother with primaries.
Again.
I am so fucking sick of doomerism.
Neither party has ever had a real primary for an incumbent president. Neither party has ever not had a primary without an incumbent president, since we started having primaries. I'm not defending it, because it's an affront to democracy, but if your looking at the past to predict the future, then you should do it right.
This wasn't the time to did it as it's always been done when everyone and their mother knew Trump was a dangerous fascist President and could see the warning signs of Biden's age.
