(25,237 posts)I'll vote for whomever is the nominee. I just hope every other Dem will do the same and not let Trump define the narrative for the Dems.

(9,988 posts)That's why I can't get into the primary infighting this year. I can't. I just can't take watching our country's ONLY HOPES spending time and money on smearing each other. We are in DESPERATE DAMAGE CONTROL mode. And we need to focus on, not any individual Dem candidate, but on tackling electoral corruption. Instead of fighting over which Democratic candidate can beat Trump (I think any of them could in a FAIR election), we need to focus on the real problem: the fact that Trump and his bootlickers will never allow a fair election without a fight.

The Primaries forum causes me no end of frustration.

(31,512 posts)I'll support the eventual nominee. In the meantime, I won't trash talk any of the Dem candidates. I hope it doesn't get as nasty as 2016.

(2,223 posts)There has also been people like Candace Owens that are trying to convince black voters to leave the party. Metoo backlashes and party purists have also added to the division. It's worrying that all these groups are trying to divide us so it'll be easier for Trump to win. We can't keep fighting each other and hope to win.

(19,558 posts)They know this and they're exploiting it as a weapon against us, again.
It's how they beat us, and we can't see it time and time again. It's why states which should be purple are red right now today.

(33,643 posts)Basically ... white people who all watch/listen to the same news sources. About the furthest their group strays is that some want pot legalized and some don't.
We are way more diverse people to begin with, and on top of that we look to much more diverse sources of info, and we have quite different 'most important issues' when you look all across our population. You don't see division in compelling interests like the one between, say, the AA population (just as a for example and speaking very generally here, not talking about DU'ers) and the LGBTQ community ... among the GOP.
The pukes long ago learned how to exploit our diversity when it comes election-time.
