My number one political worry: For anyone who has been downplaying the authoritarian threat in America…this is a video of a key “news” outlet in right-wing media calling to literally execute people who lawfully upheld the democratic process. pic.twitter.com/Gyy4iYA08o — Brian Klaas (@brianklaas) October 9, 2021

Your concern is always the same Charles... You side with the progressives,,,, but always say any Dem is better than the Pubs... (A common DEM refrain despite the internecine battles ) The progressives like Sanders' ideas always get sacrificed mostly .. because DEM moderates are ... well *not very progressive* :) ... I still think you guys need more political parties but I know that is anathema to both sides .. epicure said DEMS are a big tent... she is exactly correct.. my point is maybe too big ? You guys do not need a parliamentary system like ours... You have negotiations ALREADY at the Senate and House level... (Intramural) within DEMS and within Pubs That would not change if you more parties... Just clearer battle lines... and more might get done ...
