This bOtHsIdEsSaMe BS again?
My God you guys have either the worst comprehension possible or you're just being disingenuously annoying.
Criticizing Democrats for doing undemocratic things is not the same as saying Republicans are better, and it's not the same as supporting trump.
Both parties are fully bought and paid for by corporate interests and massive lobbies, especially one specific lobby from another country that is carrying out a genocide right now.
Pointing this out does not mean that you think trump is great. It means you can read the writing on the wall and that things need to change in a big way.
I get what you're saying in the rest of your comment but I think you are wrong here. To say "fully" bought and paid for is incredibly misleading. On the vast majority of issues that favor corporate interests democrats vote in favor of working people at a high rate. It's really not hard to check the voting on each issue. It's the same 5% of Dems that repeatedly vote for corporate interests. While the other 95% get blamed for it. On the other hand nearly all Republicans vote in lock step with corporate interests. They are not even remotely comparable.
