Just saying, you can't blame someone for W and Cheney coming to power 24 years ago while your candidate literally campaigns with them and salutes their service. I mean, you CAN, but... Kinda a weird position to take.
Also, even if you think a Gore/Lieberman administration would have even bothered trying to do climate change legislation (neolibs aren't known for trying to pass non-GOP legislation so they would not) this is passing Denny Hastert's house how? He literally invented the Hastert Rule.
It's like you're willfully ignoring all context, wild.
"I helped put W and Cheney into power, now even those ghouls think Harris is better than Trump, so I guess I'll help out Trump in power" --> you.
You're the one in the same political party as all the living war criminals...
Show us where the Cheneys registered as Democratics and abandoned the Republican party. Voting for someone from another party doesn't make you a member.
They outlined their reasoning, you continue to ignore it and make up a weird story about the democrats fully aligning all of their policy stances to those of the Cheneys. In reality, they just hate Trump and recognize the unique danger he poses. It's not complicated.
Once again you're willfully ignoring all context.
