Can't Democrats help Republicans get rid of Trump?

At some point their angry and populist base is going to wise up that AOC is not the reason they are over-leveraged, obese losers, and the guns will be out for them.

Republicans made the mess, they can clean it up. Take out their own garbage.

Joe Walsh says it here

and 35% or whatever have bought into it. The key - how do you deprogram what Stephanie Grisham has called "the crazies"?

they are all in bed together now

How do you de-program? You punish the aiders and abetters in the modern day equivalent of the stacks, force a public confession, and then put them out to pasture to never be heard from again. You tell the 35% they were mislead by bad people and you know they are good Americans at heart (even though they willingly bought in and aren’t good people or good Americans).

Sounds about right for leftist “ethics”.

From the party that tried to overthrow a free and fair election because Papa Doc's fragile ego couldn't handle it. Please, spare us the lecture on ethics - you lost that moral high ground at least six years ago.

So republicans had the moral high ground during the Obama presidency?

LOL, thanks for acknowledging that!

The Republicans lost the moral high ground when they inherited all the Democrats who jumped ship after the Civil Rights Act, and they’ve never regained it.

I’m guessing that would be different. That would be wrong!

OP here. Nope. I'm sure some Republicans will want to do that and they should have at it. The point here is to help the Republicans get rid of the crazies. If Republicans do the same, they should have at it. They will end up having to deal with more lefties than they care for. Their choice.

So the republicans end up with universally popular moderate candidates
And the democrats ( because a large portion of the base can’t participate in the primary) end up with an unelectable further left candidate.
What a great idea for republicans: get the democrats to do all the work for them, and end up winning.
Sounds about right.

Nope. Their crazies won't be nominated and right after the next election, Trump and his ilk would be gone if they don't have any influence. If the Republicans want to prop up an extreme Left candidate on the democratic side, they are welcome to it. That's like democrats wanting to elect Qanon crazies. Not likely.

If Dems are that serious, then they have to abandon R+10 and higher districts and states, and support Republicans who'd support a proper investigation into 1/6 and maybe a few other VERY basic things.

After this is done, at the general election, they can of course vote for whoever they want. I'm sure the Republicans may do the same but that should be OK with the Democratic party? Why is this not a strategy that they aren't pushing for? They don't even have to be secretive about it.

Would you sign an affidavit that swore under penalty of perjury that you would vote for the republican nominee, if they were the same candidate you voted for in the primary, in the general election ?


In other words, if you changed parties to vote for a Mitt Romney in the primary, and he won, would you still vote for Romney in the general election against whoever the democrat nominee is?

And if you didn’t, why not? And would you accept being convicted of perjury if you didn’t?

DP. Yes, of course. This is a strategy to get Republicans committed to the rule of law elected in safe Republican seats. If I lived in Wyoming, I'd sure as heck vote for Liz Cheney in the general election. I'd vote for Mitt Romney in Utah.

There are also plenty of states that have open primaries. If it's a safe seat for Republicans, patriotic Democrats should absolutely vote in the Republican primary if they have the opportunity to help nominate a Republican that won't go along with corruption, lies, or a coup.

This is a do-or-die moment for preserving our democratic form of government. That imperative trumps every single policy issue because nothing good can ever happen without it.

What's more, democracy means voters have a choice. When you only have one political party that is committed to rule of law, voters don't have a meaningful choice.

There are only two such republicans and they are being expelled from their party.
