If I’m being forgiving, I’d suggest people are concerned other Dems see his surge in polls coinciding with his bulldozing of the homeless and trolling Trump, then take the wrong lesson (which Dems do frequently) and start copying his bulldozing of the homeless.

It was an over correction after Vietnam the politicos happily encouraged.

I said it’s dumb to argue people vote for the Party complicit in their family suffering. However, you can’t argue Trump would be ANY better. Protest vote your heart out. Just do it honestly; openly accepting there was no good choice. The ones ‘shocked’ Don was full of shit? Screw them

Someone else mentioned this, but it's worth repeating. There are always a slew of "straight out of central casting" candidates on both sides during primary season, and rarely do they win. He'll run, but his actions on homelessness, fascist podcasts, and trans rights will bury him.

The Trump Administration is spending $1.2 billion to turn a WWII internment site into the nation’s largest ICE detention facility. It’s the same cruelty that Japanese Americans faced, just under a new brand. Our country—and everyone who calls it home—deserves better.
