The reason Dems are having a hard time fighting Trump's Big Lies is because they're reticent about acknowledging the Big Truth. That would include admitting & ending their own complicity with the corporatist aristocracy now tyrannizing America. It'll be a great day when they do.

They will not willingly .

*if* they do(ever). I want to be hopeful, but I'm not sure Dems will ever end "their complicity w the corporatist aristocracy." It feels unlikely.

Everything is on the mark except the last sentence: they NEVER will. No corrupt power has EVER seen itself for what it was or stopped its actions out of an awakening of conscience. This just doesn't happen (at least throughout history)
Yours is a voice I have not missed in the least during this pandemic. Or, as I'm sure you might one day say, this "candemic."

How about the dems admit that Obama manufactured the russian collusion hoax to impede trump.
Replying to @marwilliamson
No, dear. The difficulty is that trump’s lies aren’t lies. They are truths and what you’re trying to shove down our throats tastes nasty
