"You just want a perfect candidate who passes your impossible purity tests" would be a better argument if the position of the people advancing wasn't "I will take whatever garbage candidate the party barfs up at me and I'll like it and yell at anyone who asks for more"

I'm a big fan of holding politicians to higher standards of morality and legality than the common man. That way they would not elect criminals, rapists, and conmen.

"You're never going to find someone who will be exactly what you want" Buddy, I am AWARE. Bernie Sanders was a compromise candidate for most of the left that supported him, and y'all spent your time trying to throw him in a volcano
