    That would explain APAGs random politics generator.

    You can make fun of #walkaway and all but the party split for the Dems is real and already happened last election cycle.

    You've got working class whites, union members, etc.

    You've got SJW's, socialists, and other off brand minority groups like feminist muslims.

    You've got blacks and hispanics which are more socialist in politics but conservative in their values.

    Then you've got the leadership which is corporate, globalist, and free trade.

    Trump managed to resonate with a bunch of the first while Hilldog managed to alienate a bunch of the first and second.

    Explain what the current platform that will unite these disparate interests for the Dems is. The current strategy seems to be #NotTrump which isn't the worst strategy to win votes but also doesn't offer anything of substance.

    #nothillary seemed to work for Trump.

    Until the Dems rid themselves of that ilk, they are fucked with a capital F.

    Only because like I said, he resonated with the first group while she alienated others. It split the party. Kind of the point of my poast. #notTrump isn't going to split the GOP.

    The one thing Trump was smart about. Most of the GOP would have stayed home except for one issue. This comment was the only thing Trump did right: "Do you want Hillary selecting the next 2 supreme Court justices". That United the GOP and brought them to the polls.

    You're not wrong but your also not speaking to the point which wasn't, "How will the GOP stay united?"

    It's about the Dems. Hth.

    Rift Emerges Among Democrats Over Leftward Shift


    Since Hillary Clinton lost to President Donald Trump, the loudest voices in the Democratic Party have been jockeying to see who can tout the most liberal policies. Sen. Chris Coons is over it.

    The Delaware Democrat this week launched a one-man campaign imploring his party to exchange “pie-in-the-sky” promises such as abolishing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, or ICE, for pragmatic policies. Without naming names, the subject of his ire was clear: Democratic colleagues aiming to win favor from the party’s liberal base as they test out 2020 presidential bids.

    “Some members of our party, I fear, are instead taking the easy road, and proposing ideas that might sound great in a tweet, like free college, and free health care,” Mr. Coons said in a speech to New Democracy, a centrist Democratic group.

    “If the next two years is just a race to offer increasingly unrealistic proposals, to rally just those who are already with us, our strongest supporters, it’ll be difficult for us to make a credible case we should be allowed to govern again,” he warned.


    “The Democratic tent better be really big and there better not be litmus tests or we’ll never defeat Trump and regain congressional majorities,” said Matt Bennett, a co-founder and senior vice president at Third Way, a centrist Democratic think tank.

    Mr. Coons’s sharply worded critique of the party’s left wing was unusual because while many congressional Democrats privately agree with him, few are willing to say so publicly.

    Anyone who says they want to abolish ICE is fucktarded. The majority of the voters are dimwits and all they hear when that's repeated is "open borders". Even tho no one is saying open borders.

    Sure, so what is the reasonable "centrist" Democratic platform alternative? I'm still waiting to hear it.
