Well said. In 2016, the Democratic party took the stage to demonstrate how they can shoot themselves in the foot. In 2020, they showed that the bullet wound wasn't healing because they keep putting their finger inside to feel the sweet pain. In 2024, they shot themselves perfectly through the same bullet wound, causing no new damage and impressing a lot of people while other said, "I'm tired of these morons acting like idiots." So they said "wait! Wait! We have a new trick!" And then shot themselves in the head.
There are some members of the party who are legitimately trying to help the country and their constituents, and there are plenty who want to be career politicians and have been willing to play ball with the corporate investors.
On the one hand, I hate that she's done this. On the other hand, she's possibly prevented or at least delayed being prosecuted or persecuted by the utterly insane Florida GOP. Maybe this was true malice, but after this year's performance and results, I wouldn't have much faith in the Democratic party rescuing my ass in Florida.
