The funniest thing about all these supposed Nick Saban write-ins is that the man’s a Democrat and would probably govern from somewhere far left of where these voters would like.

So you're saying he would win on the backs of minorities without doing anything to help their civic or financial situations? I am shocked.

I really need to bookmark the poll I keep posting, hang on. https://theintercept.com/2016/02/24/top-gop-pollster-young-americans-are-terrifyingly-liberal/ quote:In response to the question, “Which type of political system do you think is the most compassionate?”, 58 percent said socialism and 9 percent said communism. Just 33 percent chose capitalism. Sixty-six percent of the poll’s respondents said corporate America “embodies everything that is wrong about America.”

I'm guessing they'll be a sliver of Republican Pepe Nazis and then another broad left-wing generation growing up now. I think Republicans screwed themselves out of a generation with Trump. They could've had a generation of right-libertarians.

nuclear take: while I’d prefer fully automated luxury gay space communism now, I’ll take a “bad dem” who can win and won’t vote to strip my civil rights and dissolve my marriage ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ chasing ideological purity seems to come from a place of privilege imho e: that isn’t to say we shouldn’t have these discussions about the direction of the Democratic Party but Biloxi ain’t Berkeley and folks still need to come out and pull the lever Nostalgia4Infinity has issued a correction as of 00:57 on Dec 15, 2017 |

But if you're so privileged you think it's acceptable to have a bunch of protofascist madmen seizing power every eight years or so, I guess your take is sensible.
