    Democrats need Trump as much as Republicans do. A big bogeyman like Trump keeps the oligarchy on both sides in power. Republicans can sell salvation, Dems sell fear, they both win, and the general public gets fucked

      There it is y’all! Downplay the danger of choosing the Russian useful idiot, conflate “bOtH sIdEs!”, and then blame the Democratic party.

        Do you see Russians around every corner? This isn’t the fucking 1950s where everything that opposed the government was Russia.

        If the Democratic party believed Trump was an existential threat like most people do, they would have run a primary or done basically anything to show they actually thought he was a threat.

        Instead, we get useful idiots like you responding, without citations or references, with ‘liar’ or ‘not relevant’ to actual historical parallels.

        Fucking do some work. Earn the money you’re getting paid for this.
