    Sure would be nice to know what the Republican platform is, besides being not Democrat.

    At least the Dems have a platform, and they work towards it.

      and they work towards it.

      You mean where they’re pro-union but they block strikes?

      You mean where they’re against genocide but support Israel?

      You mean where they want to raise the minimum wage but set the Treasury and the Fed on a warpath against American workers?

      You mean where they’re pro-choice but refuse to codify it?

      Establishment Democrats do not work towards their platform. They intentionally self sabotage.

      EDIT: I forgot one: You mean where they claim to take climate change seriously but then force thousands of federal workers to return to offices?

        We living in a democracy in name only. Without a free press and independent media and without better rules to allow the people to make better choices, it’s always going to go the way of some weird self reinforcing and randomly mutating ideology.
