Ah, so now the Republican party IS complicit, and Republicans fleeing a ship (that isn't a ship but is supposedly sinking to the bottom of the sea because of polls and commentators who said it was sunk already before the 2016 election) would make us all some progress if they quit acting like humans instead of rats. Rats, BTW, avoid actions that hurt other rats. They do things that hurt most other beings, including humans. And Democrats have learned that trick and practice it well.

That's a tickler. He's been losing ever since the summer of 2016.

Democracy is winning.
It, and the Republic, and the Constitution, will win if the Progressives lose.

“Because they hate liberals so much, most Republican politicians and many conservative commentators are ready to keep our government in the hands of an irrational, unstable extremist. The truest conservatives are thus those who oppose Trump. They see that the far right is radical, not conservative, and that even small-government conservatism depends on taking the government we have seriously.“
