And this is what they don't get. To get anywhere near this point to start opening the door. YOU MUST GET RID OF GOP. At all levels of government they must be put in their place and forced to obscurity. Too often we hear the "moderates" are just like republicans line which is total horse****. There could not be a clearer picture of the stark differences and levels of what the trump GOP will accept and cover up now.
To even suggest that centrists and moderates are "just like them" is insane. The exit polling clearly shows you Democratic voters believe in the fundamentals of Universal Healthcare, and Climate initiatives and Gun reform etc. They can be moved to progressive policies. The only concern is how fast and who can get it done.
If you don't get rid of GOP at all levels it doesn't matter. They don't believe in any of those progressive ideals. They will not be moved on them if you don't force them too by keeping them from power. And that only happens if all of us who think they are crazy focus on what matters and vote their happy asses out consistently.
