The bevy of Democrats running for president seems determined to test my silent vow never to vote Republican, especially for President Trump. The truth is that I cannot imagine that happening, but I can imagine entering the voting booth with about a colonoscopy level of enthusiasm. Please, can we get this over with? At the moment, the party is squabbling over what is called forced busing to achieve school desegregation. It seems the party has forgotten that, with the possible exception of the Civil War draft, no program has been more hated by working-class Democrats — more whites than blacks, but

To sum up Cohen's advice:
Scream louder. Wear your genitalia hats everywhere. Assault people with MAGA hats. Shout out references to Hitler and the holocaust daily. Unfriend conservatives on social media. Keep calling Trump supporters racists, white supremacists, homophobes, and misogynists. And don't forget Russia, Russia, Russia.
Yes sir! That's a sure winner.

Good idea but trying to get rid of Trump is another losing issue. Let me know how all that works out.

Ooh. I get it.
He’s upset that the Dems are showing us who they are and what they will do. Destroy my employer health coverage and give the rest of the globe free everything.
He’d prefer they stick to bashing the President and his family, calling us racists, and keeping us out of their restaurants.

What/who, exactly, is Trump hurting that he has to be gotten rid of at all costs.

FTA: "The urgent challenge is to rid the nation of Trump, not to mollify this or that identity group or wrestle over issues that could not be solved when they were relevant — such as busing." If anything happens to our president, remember this.

One dummy preaching to a whole group of dummies. This does not make the preacher any smarter.

What this man is saying to me is my vote doesn’t count, just his and all the other screaming memes votes are more important.

Cohen aims, Cohen shoots! Misses not only the target but the whole shooting range! What a total dutz.
The problem with the Democratz is they have gone off the rails. They have no direction, no plan, no strategy, no platform. They are in a huge mess and they know it. That is why they have 23 to 25 candidates all screaming for each other's heads and the heads of their party leaders (as if you could call that bevy of idiots, leaders!) No one has responsibility, ideas, hopes, thoughts or cohesive effort. They are simply a huge mess. Now, who would donate big money to that? No one even knows what to donate to. Individuals, that's who. If they ever actually come up with a single candidate, then what? Is there anyone alive in this version of reality who could possibly pull all this mess together? No. It is humanly impossible. That is exactly where identity politics dead ends- in chaos. So! Now what? Party fracture, that's what. The Democratic party has to die and get burie4d. Then and only then can it revive. But, even that is not likely to happen in the forseeable future. They will probably remain in a huge mess for the next five to ten years.

The demosluts have never stopped embracing losing issues. Losing issues is what the demoslut party is all about. Look at the last 60 years. For that matter, look at Social Security.

Another plea for Dems to just say they hate Trump. Forced school busing, reparations, 70% tax rates and complete government take-over of health care should be hidden from view.
