If Republicans say something someone doesn’t like, they tend to say it again louder. If Democrats say something and someone doesn’t like it, they tend to back off. That’s what progressives refuse to do and it’s starting to work. #Medicare4All #cancelcollegeloandebt #GreenNewDeal

I like & respect you. I do. But your read on Republicans/Conservatives is way off. We say stuff pretty quietly, like supporting our rights, and stand ready to defend them against those who would encroach upon them. It’s not violent, but it’s sincere and indomitable.

I do respect principled conservatives like the ones you describe. Eisenhower said the American mind at its best is both liberal and conservative. I believe that.

As do I. Having a hard stance on anything closes one’s mind to change & change is required for growth. Sometimes that change can take months, years, even decades, but it should always bend towards what’s right & just. I’d be considered an old-school Democrat these days. Be well.
