The lesser part maybe true but so is the evil part.
Always has been, otherwise it wouldn’t be called the “lesser-evil” party, it’d be called the “good” party.
We’ve known for decades (and I do mean everyone by ‘we’, I’m not even American) that the democrats are also corporate bootlickers. It’s just that their policies tend to be less anti-human generally. For a while, it was clear: Vote dem, get some consumer protections and slow improvements in healthcare, LGBT rights, etc. Vote republican, get every good thing repealed and new anti-consumer, anti-lgbt, anti-healthcare legislation introduced. Now the dems want to cater to the right for votes and the “lesser” part of “lesser evil” is starting to diminish. They’re still the lesser evil, but they’re also more in the way of true progress than ever.
