51. I don't think 5 commenters here even agree among themselves on what to do

let alone do Democratic politicians.Therein lies the "rub." Democratic Person A wants such and such. B wants something else. C has its own agenda because C thinks its idea is better of than A or B. A and B don't like C because C doesn't understand what they go through. C claims A and B should buckle up and fight for the ideas C espouses because..then almost everyone in a democracy could get almost what they want...for themselves...and of course, C.

A thousand Republican Magats asked if they'd dress up in stupid costumes and embarrass themselves to pay homage to a felon and there's no disagreement. They all hate the same things their idol does and have the same mentality and intelligence - one issue voters. So they follow and are happy because...A thousand Democrats wouldn't think of that because each KNOWS the correct way to go! Uh Huh!

20 Democrats have the same concept but 20 different ways of getting it, usually wanting to make sure it benefits them in some way. After all, it's their idea and they read and watch good news and programming and etc etc etc and those on the Right are only interested in what tramp says. Sure, they're actually ignorant and stupid. But they'll all charge the wall regardless of outcome if they are told to. Democrats won't...because, well, they really do think more. But mainly their opinion is more important and if it conflicts with others, they may take their ball and bat and just go home.

Until the Democrats unite behind something as brainless as Republicans and even vote to cut off their noses to spite their faces, the Right will and has Won. And there's no foreseeable future until ALL Democrats start agreeing on ONE thing, whatever that will be regardless whether A, B or C wants it. Compromise will be nice. But until then, unity matters. And Democrats want large unity and Patriotism,..but "I" still want mine, too. And until "I" decide to put the country first, "my" wants will continue to divide our party.

Disagree with me!
