5 Reasons I left the Democratic party: 1. @JoeBiden 2. @SpeakerPelosi 3. They refuse to support #MedicareForAll despite the fact that 88% of Democratic voters do. 4. They are NOT “for the people.” They are for their corporate donors. 5. The “lesser of 2 evils” is still EVIL.

I think some people don't understand that if you keep voting for the lesser evil, you end up with a Trump like figure.

It's quite the opposite. If more people had voted for the lesser of two evils last time, Trump would never have become president.

DECADES (!) of lesser-evil voting = a race to the bottom = DNC going from (corporatist) Obama to (corrupt corporatist warmonger) Hillary to (corrupt pathological-liar racist sexist corporatist warmonger with dementia) Biden.

Wow, Marianne, what a disappointing take- telling us to vote for evil. WRONG.

It's about the primary It's about the vote blue no matter who *Primary* If our side voted for the less of the evils, otherwise known as *the best* option. Bernie would be on his way to a landslide re-election But the DNC, MSM & Obama prefer losing to Trump & assisting the GOP

"The other guy is worse" favors Republicans, not Democrats. You're trying to win on an issue that doesn't work for your side. The economy is historically a better avenue to the White House.

Sorry Marianne, but on this you missed the point entirely about the long term cause and effect. Bidens and Hillaries *lead to* and *enable* Trumps and worse. The First Past the Post electoral system causes this downward spiral of lesser evilism. Leading to greater evil.

Well, Ms.Wmson, you've officially drunk the Kool-aid. We've done NOTHING but vote for the lesser of two evils, only the barest minimum voted for Nader. When confronted with a warmongering Sec'y of State, what kind of idiot would vote for her when given the alternative of Bernie?

If more DNC leaders had done the morally correct thing and adopted policies we could vote for, from the outset, we not only wouldn't have Trump, we'd have Medicare for All.

Look, no one knows better than me (other than Bernie) what sick games they play. But this is our democracy we're talking about; we can't let Trump win again. And a lot of people who say they're progressives have sat out the primaries where there are actually good candidates.

Your'e not breaking anything to me; that suggests it's some objective truth. We simply disagree.
