MODERATORS
I can name a few vulnerable minorities that have been abandoned by people who allowed republicans to take power, can you name any the democrats abandoned?
Democrats who ignored all the warnings about how failing to represent their constituents would result in a loss allowed republicans to take power. Not that democrats ever wield it when they have it.
Undocumented immigrants, when democrats permanently adopted republican border policy for a stupid momentary gotcha.
Trans people, when democrats not only said nothing, they actually ran anti-trans hate in their own ads.
Palestinian Americans. This has to be obvious even to you.
Women, when democrats preferred to keep the filibuster over codifying Roe.
