All I see is a statement about losing freedom if you blindly support a party.

Here's my answer to that statement.

Freedom is precisely why I am a DEMOCRAT! Like it, or not, there is a "left" and a "Reich" political philosophy in this country. The governing philosophy of the Reich is authoritarian, fascist, discriminatory, misogynistic and VIOLENT. The governing philosophy of the left INNOCULATES ITSELF from authoritarianism, fascism, misogyny, discrimination and violence.

All I need to know is this...and it's a FACT! If any president from the left spoke like, or took actions.like Donnie Dipshit has, his own party and voters would be the first ones to run him out of town on a rail.

Under a president from the left, a crazy, conspiracy,-cranking, heroine addled fuckstick wouldn't be in charge of the nations health, and a drunk rapist racist wouldn't be the fucking Secretary of Defense!

I am a Democrat because my parties core governing philosophy...and most importantly...the people that share that core governing philosophy WOULD NEVER ALLOW THIS FASCIST SHITSHOW WE CURRENTLY HAVE.
