As the Trump administration proceeds with the military police occupation of Minnesota in the face of mass resistance, and wages war all over the world, the majority of Democrats have joined with Republicans to pass a record military spending bill.
There is no way to get a majority without including moderates. Never has been, never will be. (At least until we we get rid of FPTP voting which will only happen through Democrats).
The only thing that’s gonna happen with Democrats is a continued shift to the right. If we overlaid today’s political scale with 1980 Democrats would be to the FAR right of Reagan
Democrats as a party did not support gay marriage to benefit LGBTQ communities. They supported it to neuter the political power that we had, that same political power they saw in action during Reagan to get what we wanted for gay rights and AIDS. We were the ones that participated in actual protests that created change. not this ineffective rally BS that liberals call protest. We started to see again in Harris’ campaign they will throw us back under the bus as quick as a Republican.

Ah yes, 1980s Republicans were famous for their support of gay marriage and their compassionate take on the AIDS epidemic.
Do you people even think about these bogus claims before you repeat them?

The reason is irrelevant to the point that current Democrats are the same as 1980s Republicans. That is just false.
The truth of the matter is that my policies are so mainstream that if I had set the same policies that I had back in the 1980s, I would be considered a moderate Republican
