37. Biden was the most progressive president in decades and Kamala ran to his left.

"""Playing kissy face with the neocons""" is not policy, so if people were stupid and short-sighted enough to look at us welcoming all those who wanted to join forces and defend our democracy against impending fascism rather than the actual progressive policies that were implemented by Biden and Kamala, they are fucking idiots and are getting what they deserve.

They are also not reliable votes and will easily be persuaded by social media propaganda once again, even if we give them everything they want, so I would advise ignoring the Green Party wing of the Democratic coalition and going after those who are actually reasonable, rational, and gettable.
