(71,499 posts)and never help Democrats get elected obviously...the same is true of those who claim to be left but in my opinion are not. No true progressive would have deemed Trump acceptable. No true progressive would have voted third party when the courts are at stake. How are those who claim to be left left but voted for Stein any different than a Republican? They are against the Democratic Party which is the only avenue of progressive policy...and when they criticize the party and turn people against it...they do the GOP's work. No one will want to join a party that is savaged by the right and even the so called left. In some ways such people cause more damage. How often have I listened to the Right repeat their words with a breathless...'such and such said xyz ;even they(supposed progressive) agrees with us (GOP )". I hope all voters who foisted Trump on us never have peaceful day;they literally have blood on their hands and they weren't all Republicans either. Greens can fuck off especially.
