Speaking as a #neverTrumper - but dear God the Democrats could turn this into a slam dunk win if they would stop labeling non-progressives as fascists.

Ya know the entire Democratic party isn't made up of progressives. Progressives are welcome to the party though, and the Social Democrats are a welcome recent addition. I would like to understand how some of our party not calling the other party fascists would make this a slam dunk. Sounds pie-in-the-sky.

I call parts of MAGA proto-fascist, while there are some full fledged fascists there I see them as a tiny part of the party, but they're there.

It's never going to be slam dunk as long as there are Dopes that believe there's a "Biden Crime Family". People who think *because* we're a Republic we aren't a Democracy. People who believe that adding countries near Russia to NATO absolves Putin from starting a war. People who believe that United States is a Christian Nation and the Constitution was inspired by God to bring about a Christian Nation.

We don't have the ability to pass amendments anymore. We spend a lot of time devising ways to limit people's power to vote so we can have minority rule.

see a lot of what Biden and the Dems do as even more dangerous - anti-democratic, anti-jobs, anti-business and anti-freedom - than Trump.

Now this is interesting. I think this may possible mean all this as anti-money. We do have policies that do some of these things, but it takes a stilted viewpoint to come up "with we're worse than Trump," nor do I see how a small part of the party calling someone a fascist prevents a slam dunk. Nice post though. :)
