    I’d gladly vote for a progressive if given the option to in the primaries, but should they not win, the solution to the problem is not letting the country get even worse by letting fascists into the White House during the general election.

      left-america has made more gains in the last two trump terms than the last…40-50 years.

      most americans are apparently too selfish, dumb, or isolated that they only see the light as to just how corrupt their government is when the economy is bad enough for them to feel direct personal pain. that hardship happens most under republicans, who want the economy to crash…

      that’s when people who know how the US economy really functions stand to make the most $ and gobble up the most distressed assets. it’s a cycle of Boom and Bust (very old investment term btw, look it up) that has been going on pretty much aince the country was founded
