Meanwhile ofc the dems are likely to keep 80% of the immigrant deportation policies, tax cuts for the rich, etc.

Listen, 80% of fascism is still better than 100% of fascism so we have to vote for Congressman Lil' Hitler 2. You leftists can't just get everything you want. Sometimes you have to triangulate between the guy with the Sea-Do business owner with six sexual harassment complaints, the seventh generation plantation heiress trying to dodge any kind of inheritance taxes, and the Groyper with the confederate flag face tattoo. You don't have room to flirt with Starbucks unionized workers or migrant farm labor or college professionals with enormous student debts or black church parishes, because they were automatically going to vote for you anyway.

The dems become the rational alternative.

What could possibly be more rational than this?

Vote for Dick Cheney's Daughter's Best Friend or you aren't serious about beating the Republican Party.
