What are the Democrats willing to FIGHT for?

Maybe that's the question that candidates should figure out as this next election gears up. Because we know what Republicans are willing to fight for, even to the point of lying, cheating and committing treason.

If nothing else, I hope that Mueller's investigations will expose Republicans for the bottom feeders that they are. Let them lose their moral high ground. From four star generals who expect the Generalismo treatment to Evangelicals who make excuses for their favorite adulterers. The world, indeed, has fallen off its axis.

If they have to chose between the Dreamers and their seat, watch how fast the Dreamers will get tossed under the bus. I used Dreamers as an example, but it could just as well apply to any number of other issues.

And that applies equally to both Democrats and Republicans.

for 30 years on democrats, liberals and the policies and laws that made America, America....throw in the money people like the Kochs and their buying to control voting ranks and propaganda galore.

democrats been caught believing you can some how "reason and debate" tha twould change the minds of the rightwing. Pure hogwash and we have paid the price in 2016 when good smart democrats. liberal and progressives either not voted or voted for stein as they would rather see the travesty of Trump over supporting the "lesser" of 2 evils.

well we got real evil and may take a fucking GENERATION to fix the system as rabid judges are being appointed up and down the federal system.

we caused this happen and we are responsible for it happening and only we can take back our country and make America, America again.


NO REASONING WITH IDEOLOGUES....never works, ever
