26. Yes, what about those people with an "I" next to their name?

Are they the same people who always manage to find fault with the Democratic Party or who claim that Republicans and Democrats are cut from the same cloth, basically the same. Or maybe it's the "I" people who ride the coattails of the Democratic Party for the convenience of the PR and money come election time.

If those are the "I" people Ms Gray refers to, you can count me out. Because we've seen this picture show before.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
I am not sure Ms Gray can be told anything. She has her narrative and she's sticking with it. emulatorloo May 2019 #1
Yeah, I'm sure you're right, Cha May 2019 #2
If by her narrative you mean the words in quotes in that tweet, those were from AOC. At least highplainsdem May 2019 #18
