And while they are in office, you give them hell to get them to act more progressively to keep your vote. This is how democracy is supposed to work. I don’t see what point OP is trying to make.

Hang on because the next year is going to get insane with stuff like this.

Yeah, and our current weapon support for Israel isn’t helping win over any lefties.

I think the meme is endearing. Yes, we will accept you if you're running as a Democrat and hopefully you will have some progressive policies. Once in offic we should hold them to the fire else they might become complacent. They are OUR representatives. Representing so many people with so many differing ideas can be hellish. Very easy to just give in and collect money until you can become a lobbyist.
