Blue Cities and States Are in Trouble. Democrats Need to Change How They Run Them – New York Times*

An illustration of a desk twisted in a big knot. Documents are flying off the desk. On one side a white cup holds pens and a small American flag."Consider Gov. J.B. Pritzker of Illinois. A fearless opponent of Donald Trump, his bravery failed him when Chicago police and firefighter unions sought to raise pensions, often by thousands of dollars. Against the advice of civic and business leaders concerned about, as they put it, “grossly underfunded pensions,” Mr. Pritzker signed legislation that partly undid a 2010 attempt to rein in benefits for new employees."

The entirety of the democratic party is made up of degenerates, filth, leeches and thieves. It is all going as to their plan. Complete destruction is their goal.

Well, I wish you’d be open to maybe at least “entirety less one” as something of a minor common sense concession. Instead you have to go 100% bat shit crazy instead. You belong to the neanderthal world of absolutist thinking, it appears. If only the real world conformed to such infantile analysis. Sadly, it almost never does. There is “a,” “z” and lots of possibilities in between them almost always. Yet, only the extremes catch your notice. You need new glasses.

dems will play moderate in an election year then revert to their hardcore leftist roots when elected.
They don’t change; only their rhetoric does.
