aimed directly at the Democratic Party and poisoning vulnerable targets on both right and left to suppress the vote.

Yesterday, my husband helped a trumpster neighbor, who gets Social Security and is insured through the VA, order something on line, and the neighbor was very concerned that the government would steal his financial data. My husband tried to reassure him, but saw no reason to try to enlighten. Anyway, this story is right up his alley, loathing of the evil DNC only one of a number of things he has in common with his counterparts on the far left.

Of course, it's not them we need to be concerned about, but those seldom- and non- voters who don't know what to think might be influenced by the toxic fumes from that direction into staying disengaged.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

You know, when you speak of those "on the left" Bettie Jan 2020 #45

No, I don't. I'm in the center of the party, not on the left edge, or on the right. highplainsdem Jan 2020 #52
