The "GOP leaning" Trump base exercises "broken judgment." Yes. As I've argued since 2016. And I don't see how I could make it plainer. But I'd extend this to any "independents" who have trouble recognizing Trump's mental instability, ignorance of government and foreign policy, misogyny, racism and general unfitness for the highest office in the land.

One certainly can as the issue is hardly confined to that one person. I suppose we can wait and see the Democratic party platform once released and revisit this then.
Ok. Portland too.
The "insult" is in painting these local (and very much experimental) political movements as somehow the real, scary Dem national platform, as if they have taken over the Democratic party in the manner and too the degree that the extreme right in the US has overwhelmed the Republican.
If that were the case, Biden would not be the Dem candidate for president. And the Dem party would be split the way the Republican is now, with "never-Bideners" and an FDR Project or some such of prominent Dems running ads against him.
