    If that’s actually their game plan, then that’s the most idiotic game plan I’ve ever seen and it is definitely going to put trump back in the White House.

    They can’t seriously be that stupid though. Can they?

    I think it could be possible that this is the game plan they’re going with because it’s lazy and won’t piss off any donors, which doing things actual leftists want would definitely do.

      They’re not stupid. They’re pro-corporatists. They can’t prosecute Trump without harming some other rich fucks in the process. When Trump said he’d have to have a fire sale to make the bond amount that wasn’t a complaint it was a threat. Commercial real estate is already being propped up by fake numbers. If Trumps properties went up for sale it would blow that whole thing up. That’s why he’s being protected.

      Pro-corporatism has no way of addressing fascism. And the Democrats are a pro-corporate party.

        What an evil stupid system. People wonder why there’s voter apathy among leftists. This is why.

      The DNC screwed over Bernie in 2016 to make sure a real progressives wouldn’t win. They shoved in Hillary which was (and is) so bad she lost to Trump 1.

      The Clintons actually suggested Trump to run thinking he’d be such a pathetic opponent that it would land them an easy victory.

      Make no mistake, the Democrats prefer having Trump win over someone that could actually impose change.

      Trump is their perfect enemy because they can keep running trash candidates and having them win solely on “not Trump”.

        Democrat voters screwed over Bernie, not the DNC. Bernie was on every single ballot. All people would have had to do is actually get off of their pampered asses and go vote for him. They didn’t. She won. We got Trump as a result.
