    That would be a good argument if the Democrats hadn’t paved the way for Trump. We need new politics and new systems.

      And how do you suppose you get that without primarying incumbent and establishment dems with progressives? Which involves voting Dem and in Dem primaries.

      The only people who paved the way for trump were the people who didnt vote against trump and the right wing media machine. There is no looking at the two platforms and think its a hard choice. If your values lean left the choice is easy.
