    “You don’t convince your opposition to vote for you…”

    Yes EXACTLY. Why do Democrats CONSTANTLY make appeals to the right, then?

      to convince low information democratic voters to vote for them without providing material benefit. To create “faith” that dem’s hearts are in the right place without proof

        Exactly: Further allow the country to rot and Repubs to pull the Overton Window to the right.

        Democrats are useful idiots. Through and through.

      You make some excellent points and I want to say that I think it is really unfortunate you got hit by the downvote bus.

        I’m not who you responded to but there’s a vocal contingent of never-grassers who find and downvote anything short of glowing praise of the DNC et al. Ya grow to love the downvotes, like little love taps from my fellow citizens <3. I might not agree with them, but i do appreciate them. At least theyre motivated.
