      He’s not a moderate, he’s a standard establishment Democrat loser, the kind that got us here. He’s the same as Schmuck & Jeffries.

            Yeah I don’t see the point of MAGA-lite it’s been tried all over Europe and never works, people want full MAGA over diet MAGA.

            The only countries kind of holding their shit together are those where a center-left party has been dragged left by being in coalition with a left wing party (Spain, Portugal, etc)

      You don’t support politicians in America. This is a first past the post system. You just begrudgingly vote against the worst one and work like mad to get ranked choice.

      You don’t support him because he is a moderate.

      I fucking hate him because he personally destroyed the possessions of the poorest of his constituents
