38. Hmmm... How many who followed Turner's advice to not vote for Democrats

Apr 2022

in 2016 (or ever) have regretted it since? I always wonder on threads about Turner, and/or her crowd.

We hear a lot from those Turner supporters who've stayed loyal, but rarely from others, even with the enormous dangers today of the fall of democracy to authoritarian government. (Do some still imagine it could be replaced with a LW authoritarian version and do away with capitalism and "the establishment" Democrats are desperately fighting to save?)

Thanks, of course, to those who wish they could do 2016 over again and vote to undo.

Fortunately, Shontel Brown's list of endorsements gets longer and more impressive all the time, reflecting her impressive achievements in congress (already!), and her good character and judgement. Of course our most powerful, genuine progressive adds hers. One historic achiever already in the history books to one who someday may well also be.

I hope Brown soundly trounces Nina Turner. Ocelot II Apr 2022 #1
