    No, they’re so afraid of the Republicans that they’ll fall in line and vote blue no matter who.

    Welllllll… would they? I think a lot of that rhetoric comes out of people in a comfortable assumption that it’ll be a “sensible centrist” that will win the primary and it’s the left that has to hold their nose when they vote. If it’s someone who’s to the left of Elizabeth Warren, you’d be seeing a bunch of “why it’s okay for liberals to vote for Tom Cotton” op-eds.

      Of course they would!  They wouldn’t just lie in order to gaslight leftists into voting for fascists, would they? curious-sickle

      Of course, you’re correct.  And they’d blame the Left for destroying the Democratic Party by forcing liberals to vote for the Republican Party to stop Communism.
