The idiot Dem "leadership" was TOLD in 2021 to pass an elimination or reform of the debt ceiling in the budget reconciliation bill they passed on a party-line vote, and they basically said, oh, no one would hold the country hostage over that - it wouldn't be nice.....
I'll vote with them but I'll be damned if I send money to the DNC..... I do donate to Democratic candidates in elections. And do not get me started on the stupid pleas for money they send continually, telling me to send money to "pass this bill and expand the SCOTUS" or some other project, when I know perfectly well that it is currently impossible to do so. Sheesh.
that sort of applies to all of us. now it's my understanding that in California you can vote even in Republican primaries?
if I were a generation younger, I'd probably pride myself on being a registered Independent, because I've observed that people born in, say, the sixties seem to pride themselves on being "unaffiliated."
in my case, there is no case to be made. my father helped write speeches for Stevenson, for godsake.
There are no Republican or Democratic primaries. There's a Jungle Primary where the top two regardless of party are the candidates on the ballot in November.
Nobody has ever done it before and they don't know if the markets will accept that.

The only reason I'm a Democrat is because of the Republicans.
