I'm left leaning and can't stand the current democratic party. I'm never voting republican, but after the bernie bullshit to ram clinton in i'm under no illusion that the democrat party is for the people by any stretch. In another timeline where he was elected instead of trump we might have had some amazing outcomes from the pandemic. A real populist that seems to be anything but the corrupt status quo might have put politics on a more enlighened, less sensational smoke and mirrors path.
