As someone that has left the democratic party (yes, I was a registered Dem - even momentarily flirted with Progressive) for the wild west unaffiliated, please come join the middle. Understand that we need at least two strong parties nationally. Anytime one party tries to legislate / squeeze out the other party (laws/gerrymandering/buying votes) we remove a little piece of the balance that keeps this country together.
I was having a conversation recently with two different people at different times, one technical and one not. The technical person, knowing how much a mistake this was from a technical security aspect, was still willing to ignore issues that would get anyone else fired and was willing to ignore undisputed technical facts. A (usually) smart person fully willing to ignore fact for ideology.
The second person, we'll say not technical, did not care that items of National Security were offered up on a silver platter for nation states that are at best, not our friends.
If any one of us "little people" had done that we would, at minimum, be fired and lose security clearance. Yet these two well educated people were willing to ignore hard truths for ideology.
