Just what the Republican did to each other in 2016. But they ended up winning with the worst possible Republican to become President. Well actually pseudo-republican. To be an actual Republican you’d have to have loyalty to the party and Trump’s only loyalty is to himself. Regardless, let’s hope Democrats don’t duplicate that result in 2020 by putting the worst possible Democrat (or pseudo-democrat) in the Presidency.
Not even close to the way the GOP tore each other apart in 2016 / 2012 / AND 2008. At least the Dems are civil with their disputes and keep it (mostly) about politics… looking at you Warren.
Since the late 1960’s, the focus of BOTH parties, seems to be not about simply governing, but about attaining POWER. Power and authority to push THEIR agendas. One gets in and does so. Later, the other gets in, pares back the others acts and puts in their in. Again, again and again. Wealth and Power is what drives today’s politicians, more than ever before!
You should’ve thrown Hillary in there for good measure since she’s been gaslighting the anti-unity effort in the name of “I, Hillary Clinton, was cheated in 2016” whining.
When one of the candidates starts claiming that another candidates father assassinated Kennedy then we will know it has gone off the rails. Difference is… that candidate would quickly be out of the running… NOT getting his ass kissed by the whole party.
Mr. Ariail is depicting what occurs in EVERY primary in both BOTH parties – this is normal.
What “GuacamoleCostsExtra” points out, above, may also play out with the democrats in 2020, because, I shouldn’t need to remind anyone, Senator Bernie Sanders is NOT A DEMOCRAT in exactly the same way that Trump WAS NOT A REPUBLICAN in 2016.
That little troubling thought, along with the fact that Trump/Putin has had to temporarily ‘shelve’ their quest for “dirt” on the Bidens, has taken to “sympathizing” with Sanders on the ‘horrible’ way he’s being treated by the democrats!
Donnie John would dearly love to run against Sanders, the avowed “democratic socialist” because he knows Trump’s voter base is too stupid to understand what the term “socialist” even signifies and so Bernie could be tarred with the “socialist” label and Bernie would wear it, proudly.
I am a democrat.
I want a democrat in the White House.
Bernie Sanders is NOT a democrat.
Sanders is marginally better than Trump – but that is an extremely low bar to measure by!
Looks like some drug-induced fantasy. I have a suggestion for you, Arial, pay more attention to your own outhouse, where the RNC has disenfranchised, shunned, and ghosted Bill Weld, Joe Walsh, and Rocky De La Fuente by eliminating the Republican primaries and refusing any other candidate a platform to appeal to the Republican voters at large for fear of making their Dear Leader appear less desirable to the Cult Followers. many of the Cult Followers don’t even know there is a choice. It’s just “Dear Leader, shut up and vote for him, you know you have to”.
I want a progressive. Electing a moderate will increase cooperation with the other side of the aisle. But, that cooperation is the result of agreeing to play the whole game inside their end of the 50 yard line. Not too many scores for our side that way. I’d rather use the whole field and hope for a few Hail Marys.

I would like to see Warren in a debate with the Chosen One. I would to see him try to push her off the stage.
