Joe Walsh is a former Tea Party Republican who has joined the Democratic party.

Real conservatives prioritize their commitment to democracy and the Constitution above party. The conservatives who voted for Trump are just some combination of selfish, racist, and hateful.

@augieray There really is no left wing party. There are liberals in the Democratic Party, but they're NOT well received. What we really have is conservative corporate owned vs. Nazi corporate owned.
@crazyeddie I am exhausted having to argue with people about idiocy like this. The Democrats may disappoint you, but if you cannot fundamentally tell the difference between the unconstitutional, racist and demented policies of this administration and the alternative offered by the Democrats, that says a lot more about you than it does US political parties.

@augieray You read a lot into that and became a total asshole for no reason.

Later.

@crazyeddie @augieray Well you were the only person talking about 'left wing' parties. So why did you go there?

"The white conservatives aren't friends of the Negro either, but they at least don't try to hide it. They are like wolves; they show their teeth in a snarl that keeps the Negro always aware of where he stands with them. But the white liberals are foxes, who also show their teeth to the Negro but pretend that they are smiling. The white liberals are more dangerous than the conservatives; they lure the Negro, and as the Negro runs from the growling wolf, he flees into the open jaws of the "smiling" fox."

@augieray @crazyeddie Or maybe you're just a racist who was fine with record deportations, record shootings by police, and genocide when it was a Democrat doing it.
