Thank you for this. As a lifelong Democrat, I feel betrayed by the party I have been supporting since I first registered as a Democrat in high school, in particular by:
1. The failure to adequately challenge the Iraq war
2. The DNC skewing the primaries against Sanders
3. Nominating uber-hawk Clinton
4. Doing something--heaven only knows what--against other candidates in 2020 to get them to withdraw. Does anyone really believe that top-tier candidates just all decided to withdraw BEFORE super Tuesday? Really?
5. The cruel 1994 crime bill.
6. What I suspect was an attempt to silence Tulsi Gabbard.
Since the Democratic party no longer stands for Democratic ideals, who cares whether their candidates win or not?
