    It would help if Republicans could distinguish between the actual “radical left” and the center-right (and moving further right) DNC. If they knew actual leftist policies, many would support them, as has been shown in a bunch of those “tricking Trump voters” Youtube videos. Unfortunately they’ve been conditioned to fear words like “socialism” and “communism” so you have to wrap the concepts in cheese, metaphorically, while feeding it to them.

    We live in a democracy.

    We live in a plutocracy. Otherwise the Biden Admin would’ve ended all aid to Pissrael and the Trump Admin wouldn’t have gone to war with Iran. Otherwise the data center using 2x the energy of the entire state of Utah wouldn’t have been approved. Otherwise cannabis would be federally legal.

    We only have the illusion of democracy. Democracy theater.
