Let's Be Smart in the 2020 Primaries
Today I was visiting one of the I hate Trump Facebook pages when someone posted an article critical or positive about Bernie Sanders (I frankly dont remember which). The post almost immediately started to attract the typical pro and con lets re-fight the Democratic primaries responses. I started to type out a message saying something like, Lets not start this up again folks; with Trump in the White House we have bigger worries. However, as I started to type I found it difficult because new replies were coming at such a rapid rate the response I was typing was continually being pushed off of the bottom of my computer screen. After scrolling up several times and having the same thing happen again and again, I gave up. Apparently there is still a great deal of interest in re-fighting the Democratic primaries.
My thought at the time was that I shouldnt be concerned about the tendency of those on both sides of the progressive divide who want to live in the past and continue the primaries fight of an election that we lost to a heinous human being. If people don't understand how ridiculous that is, there is no help for them. However, after giving the matter additional thought I begin to realize what this might mean in terms of the next Presidential election. If that happens again, our odds winning the general election will deteriorate and this country cannot afford anther Republican victory in 2020.
