(21,646 posts)I dont know that most of the country is ready for a candidate he wants and will vote that way
Maybe Im wrong
We need to focus on winning against trump is number one for me .
Dont forget unless something happens trump is an incumbent with a good economy / jobs report
Plus we are up against all the voting irregularities and propaganda with an electoral college system
Think trump cant win no matter who I do not count on it
Now start talking how you want to put a lot of people out of business
Independents make up a large voting portion who can swing either way along with minorities who traditionally will vote for the democrat in the elections . New youth voting for the first time not all necessarily as left as Moore
I think the party needs to look to these other factions who can come out to vote Dem and assume that these types like Moore will not cooperate with the mainstream dem party if it is Biden or Harris who wins the most primaries .
Their time will then be spent fighting the dem candidate Waste all resources courting them is not going to get them to the polls. They will just assume that means they have more influence then they really do if attention is paid to them for votes imo
I dont even have a favorite dem candidate that is how much getting rid of trump means to me.
Yes I just want to beat trump unfortunately that is my inspiration but I already hear people say they wont necessarily just vote for anybody but trump.
I do notice none of those declaring that stance belong to any of the groups under attack by magats so maybe like Moore they are more likely to take a chance because if trump wins again they are not directly affected other thAn climate change.
Plus on thatsubject , if they think once again both R&D candidates are just the same , to them it really will not matter
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
