Guys like you would rather go to an early grave than break with your party line, and in 10 years we are going to see much larger, existential problems with the Democratic Party because of it.

So keep on laughing Bubba.

Being wrong about a topic is called post partisanism - kalm

MAQA - putting the Q into qrazy qanon qult qonspiracy theories since 2015.

It will probably be difficult for MAQA yahoos to overcome the Qult programming but they should give being rational & reasonable a try.

Back in the day they used to have polls on the subject, especially for new voters when the voting age dropped to 18. Independents were also called unaffiliated back then.

It is an entity of sorts but it is not a political party.
