 I mean say what you want about the Republican Party, but at least they are a functioning and legitimate democratic political organization. This new version of the democrat party is… I don’t even know what to call it. Codified oligarchy? No one voted for Kamala Harris. It doesn’t seem like it matters who the D nominee is. Just put in a puppet and tell the brainwashed faithful to vote for it. That’s just as if not more troubling to me as when Fox News had control of the airwaves in 2004. 
 Functioning Legitimate Democratic Political Organizations don't exist here. Including those run by lifelong grifting douchbags.
