    They have one thing in common: the understand they can get most of what they want by voting as a block, instead of demanding their candidates tick all the boxes.

    Leftist infighting is the best tool the right has. And they know it. Whenever you see a leftist saying they won’t vote for a Democrat because “both sides are the same”, there’s a good chance you’re seeing a Russian bot or a right wing plant. Or a fucking idiot. I guess that’s a possible third option.

        No coincidence. Just because both sides are bought and paid for does not mean they’re the same. They differ on a non-zero number of pretty tangible things.

        And if you have any realistic means to getting a third party in there, why are you not telling the rest of us??
