I admit, I didn’t watch the clip, the premise is too crazy.
Dems are brain damaged, and they will vote Dem even if the Dem pols are promising to kill Dem voters.
Union members vote for open voters when it costs them with lower wages and lost jobs.
Don’t be absurd.
The whole experiment of allowing people to vote (”democracy”)is collapsing under the strain of identity politics.
Huge majorities in California, New York, Illinois, Maryland, etc have adopted “Democrat” as an aspect of their identity. Actually, that isn’t even true. They’ve adopted “not Republican” as their identity, which defaults to “Democrat” because of the false dichotomy (Red-Blue) imposed by the media.
And, of course, there is an inverse “Republican” identity, more accurately “not Democrat”. This is why neither party stands for anything, why Bernie Bros and Trump loyalists constantly are getting screwed.
This trend began with the election of 1972, and the trend of encouraging people to vote AGAINST their anti-identity has accelerated since then.
This, of course, defeats the rationale for platforms, positions, campaigns, and eventually dissolves Election Day itself.
Using “democracy” to select leaders is failing everywhere. What comes next?
Forget California and take care of Texas.
