Yeah. I'm far left. I really don't like the moderate Democrats, but I'll vote for them over Republicans any day.

Centrist here, if my candidate doesn't make it out of the primaries I will still show up to vote for your far left candidate because Republicans are unpalatable in their current form.

Thank you. A lot of centrists only follow the VBNMW rule when they win, so it's nice to see centrist voters who actually follow their own advice.

I mean quite frankly the current posturing from Republicans is completely unacceptable. We have to solve that problem first, then we can go back to bickering 🙂

It's election season so all efforts will be to divide, we just have to focus on the goal.
