"This is not the historical moment for an ethical purity test. In 2024, the Republican Party will likely run either twice-indicted, twice-impeached criminal con man Donald Trump or neo-fascist Florida governor Ron DeSantis. If you have the opportunity to vote against Nazis, vote against Nazis, because if they get to power, you won’t be voting again."

@wdlindsy Truth but that would mean everyone would have to get over themselves and get to work... not many people like to do that in positions of power unfortunately...

@Aviva_Gary Yes — and where you say "but," I'd say "and." And that would mean everyone would have to get over themselves and get to work.

The Republicans do that well as a rabid minority. Democrats can learn to do it, too, if we choose.
