“But we have to pick someone more moderate so we can compromise with the Republicans!”

Fuck no we don’t. If they field their most extreme and we field our most moderate only one thing happens. I yearn for a future where Bernie was elected instead and even he’s too damn old for this shit.

I yearn for a past where Al Gore won the election in 2000.

Or perhaps, one where the republicans didn’t steal it (legitimately, not like Trump’s claims) is more accurate, I suppose.
