I agree, but I didn't say D's, I said liberals. You are a liberal IMO. Virtually all liberals live in the D party.

The moderates have had control of the dem party for the last 30 odd years. The D's thought they would get their agenda back with Obama, which is why liberal women abandoned Hillary (a moderate) for Obama, but he was a liberal in disguise and immediately moved to the center upon election; then they were out flanked again in 2016 by the moderates controlling the party, DNC and the congress to a large degree.

But now the liberals are taking power back and quickly moving the party left.

Cuz, the (D)'s AREN'T 'my people'. There's a reason the single biggest group of voters are independents. I see the (D)'s as only slightly less sold out than the (R)'s, slightly less evil. Both parties are owned by their funders, which isn't you and me. The (D)'s should pendulum their way back into power, and when they do, it'll be clearer. It wasn't a mistake that Obama didn't punish any bankers after the 2008 meltdown, it was (D) policy.

The (D)'s look (and ARE) much better now, because of Trump. When they come back into power, lets see if they address the main problem in America today, income inequality.
