Sorry you think so. We've had enough discussions here about neo-liberals and DINOs and purity and Obama bashing to last me a lifetime but this is a sneer? I thought it was a good name for it without being nasty. Those people have no intention of voting for a Democrat or supporting the party, so I don't get the circular firing squad reference. People with all sorts of ideas and beliefs are welcome in the party, but those who only want to stab Democrats in the back time after time are trying to take the party down. Do I always go along with the party line? No. I sometimes disagree about certain things but overall I see that the Democrats are far better for our country than Republicans. Anyone who preferred a Trump presidency deserves anything anyone can throw at them whether their intentions were pure or not.

JMHO.
