    Except Dems always play by the rules

    No they don’t!

    They say they do, but they routinely break conventions and norms and laws and constitutional amendments when it’s convenient for them and their donor base.

    More often than not, they wait for a Republican to do it first and then just keep on keeping on.

    But they don’t follow the rules. They use the rules to excuse why they refuse to enact popular policies. They deflect and defer and soccer-flop.

    “they go low, we go high”

    Obama did drone strikes on children.

      Wrong Obama, but let’s put things in perspective here…Trump bombed a girls school in a remote village. Then came back and bombed the rescue effort.

      I really wonder what a generation of boys who grow up in a remote village with a shortage of female peers will end up like.

      Yep. They’ll sure as fuck break the rules when it comes to preventing a progressive candidate from winning a Democratic primary race.

      Good point - “Dems don’t break the rules FIRST” is probably a better way for me to phrase it. But that gets us to the same place. They wouldn’t trash the ballots here until they’d seen proof Repubs did it, and by then it would likely too late to respond tit for tat. Election over; world fucked. But the NEXT time election (in what, 50, 60!years of we’re lucky) we might get something.
