Well that would require people to actually go vote every time instead of just bitching online. Or discouraging everyone from voting by saying someone is "Republican light"

I voted for Kamala. She was still Republican Light. It pissed me off watching her run to the right, it pissed me off having to vote for a Republican Light platform, it pissed me off that it lost her the election, and now we have fucking crazy man in the whitehouse again because they decided she needed to be more like R not less.

I'm not voting Republican Light again. Next time I'll be one of the ones getting yelled at I guess. If we're going to keep ratcheting right, I'm at least not going to support it.

Guess how well my votes up to now have worked. Maybe the 2024 election will be what helps Dems decide they are done enabling what is represented in OP, and they will present me with something other than Republican Light in 2026 (and 2028).
