I like Democrats. I prefer the company of Democrats. Here are a few reasons why:
-- compassion
-- a tendency to think forward, towards the future, rather than fetishizing a past that never existed
-- a reliance on (or at least respect for) science and the facts it uncovers
-- better cultural output (no Kid Rock for me, thank you)
-- generosity without the expectation of reciprocity
-- empathy
-- coherence of thought, word, and action (most of the time)
-- tolerance of heterodoxy
-- willingness to meet people where they are without pretense or patronization
-- resistance to death cults
-- higher quality and deeper conversations
-- worldliness
-- their sense of humor is actually funny and not mean spirited
-- few red hats
-- a general desire for peace in the world
-- better gas efficiency.
It is good to be on the correct side of history.
"They" say the upcoming midterms may be a rout. We may even win back the Senate and realign American politics away from Donald Trump and his cadre of sycophants.
Should we win the House and the Senate, I look forward to the figurative castration of the executive for all to see.
The King is dead, long live the Republic.
