I almost looks like your "democrats" are not actually democrats...

It looks an awful lot like they want the same things as Republicans and are all playing an elaborate game of Good Cop/Bad Cop.

But if you vote Democrat you'll

  • ~~get a good economy~~
  • ~~get a president that isn't incompetent~~
  • ~~get a president that will actively fight genocide~~
  • ~~get a president that won't dump money into the military industrial complex~~
  • ~~get a president that will fight back against fascism~~
  • ~~get a president that won't sacrifice all of their values in the name of "bipartisanship"~~
  • get a president who's name isn't Donald J Trump

Yeah, man. What it feels like is bullying. Take this thing you don't want or we'll let someone burn your house to the ground. Is basically an elaborate racketeering scheme.
